Subject: [PATCH] Bluetooth: fix error handling in hci_register_dev()
Date: Thu, 13 Mar 2025 16:31:35 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250313083135.307357-1-make24@iscas.ac.cn> (raw)
Once device_add() failed, we should call put_device() to decrement
reference count for cleanup. Or it could cause memory leak.
As comment of device_add() says, 'if device_add() succeeds, you should
call device_del() when you want to get rid of it. If device_add() has
not succeeded, use only put_device() to drop the reference count'.
Found by code review.
