[PATCH 1/2] Bluetooth: cmtp: Fix module reference

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



We cannot call module_put(THIS_MODULE) if this is our last reference. Otherwise,
this call may cleanup our module before it returns.

Gladly, the kthread API provides a simple wrapper for us. So lets use
module_put_and_exit() to avoid a race condition with the module cleanup code.
