[PATCH 2/2] lgdt3306a: Fix a double kfree on i2c device remove

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

 



Both lgdt33606a_release and lgdt3306a_remove kfree state, but _release is
called first, then _remove operates on states members before kfree'ing it.
This can lead to random oops/GPF/etc on USB disconnect.
