In the function mmc_alloc_host, the function put_device is called to release allocated resources when mmc_gpio_alloc fails. Finally, the function pointed by host->class_dev.class->dev_release (i.e., mmc_host_classdev_release) is used to release resources including the host structure. However, after put_device, host is used and released again. Resulting in a use-after-free bug.
