Subject: [PATCH] EDAC/x38: Fix mci_pdev reference leak in x38_init_one()
Date: Wed, 16 Sep 2026 09:21:21 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260916092121.2000892-1-vulab@iscas.ac.cn> (raw)

In x38_init_one(), a reference to the PCI device is taken with
pci_dev_get() and stored in the global mci_pdev even when x38_probe1()
fails.  On that path x38_registered keeps its initial value of 1, so
x38_exit() skips the pci_dev_put() and the reference is leaked.

Only take the reference after x38_probe1() succeeds.

Fixes: df8bc08c192f ("edac x38: new MC driver module")
