[PATCH 12/45] staging: unisys: fix up device_destroy

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

 



Visorbus_remove_instance calls device_unregister which in turn will call
visorbus_release_busdevice. The function visorbus_release_busdevice was
freeing the visor_device. The code in visorbus_remove_instance was then
trying to reference the visor_device. This patch cleans up the code so
the visor_device is not referenced after the unregister.
