Therefore you could move the check for the right mdev before getting a reference to req, thus simplifying error handling as a result. > + > + if (req->mdev != mdev) > + goto err_kref_put; > + > + fput(filp); > + > + return req; > + > +err_kref_put: > + media_request_put(req); > + > +err_fput: > + fput(filp); > + > + return ERR_PTR(-ENOENT); > +} > +EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(media_request_find); > + > int media_request_alloc(struct media_device *mdev, > struct media_request_alloc *alloc) > { -- Sakari Ailus e-mail: sakari.ailus@xxxxxx
