[PATCH 11/24] media/radio/si470x: fix dangling pointers

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

 



Fix I2C-drivers which missed setting clientdata to NULL before freeing the
structure it points to. Also fix drivers which do this _after_ the structure
was freed already.

Found using coccinelle, then reviewed. Full patchset is available via
kernel-janitors, linux-i2c, and LKML.
