From 4d59588c09f2a2daedad2a544d4d1b602ab3a8af Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Robert Richter Date: Wed, 12 Feb 2020 13:03:39 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] EDAC/sysfs: Remove csrow objects on errors All created csrow objects must be removed in the error path of edac_create_csrow_objects(). The objects have been added as devices. They need to be removed by doing a device_del() *and* put_device() call to also free their memory. The missing put_device() leaves a memory leak. Use device_unregister() instead of device_del() which properly unregisters the device doing both.
