Subject: drivers/rtc/rtc-proc.c: add module_put on error path in rtc_proc_open()
From: Alexander Strakh <cromlehg@xxxxxxxxx>
In file drivers/rtc/rtc-proc.c seq_open() can return -ENOMEM.
86 if (!try_module_get(THIS_MODULE))
87 return -ENODEV;
88
89 return single_open(file, rtc_proc_show, rtc);
In this case before exiting (line 89) from rtc_proc_open
the module_put(THIS_MODULE) must be called.
