[PATCH 2/4] staging: dgap: fix memory leak caused by double allocation of tty_structs

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

 



The tty_struct of serial_driver and print_driver were getting
allocated twice. One is allocated in tty_alloc_driver(), the other
is in dgap_tty_register(). So remove these in dgap_tty_register().
