Hi Guennadi, Thank you for the patch. As commented on patch 1/6, please capitalize the first word after the prefix in the subject line (you're using the correct prefix this time ;-)). The comment holds for the other patches in this series.

I think I'd call the resulting function uvc_delete() to differentiate it from uvc_release(), but if you prefer uvc_kref_release() I'm OK with that too. > +} > + > static void uvc_release(struct video_device *vdev) > { > struct uvc_streaming *stream = video_get_drvdata(vdev); > struct uvc_device *dev = stream->dev; > > - /* Decrement the registered streams count and delete the device when > it > - * reaches zero. > - */ > - if (atomic_dec_and_test(&dev->nstreams)) > - uvc_delete(dev); > + /* Decrement the refcount and delete the device when it reaches zero > */ s/zero/zero./ Or you could remove the comment altogether, I don't think it adds much anymore. > + kref_put(&dev->ref, uvc_kref_release); > } > > /* > @@ -1870,10 +1874,10 @@ static void uvc_unregister_video(struct uvc_device > *dev) > > /* Unregistering all video devices might result in uvc_delete() being > * called from inside the loop if there's no open file handle.

Otherwise you should update it to not mention streams anymore. The rest of the patch looks good.
