(typical errors see above). Maybe it would be better foe further generations to turn the loop on its head like: int c; for(c=0; c < i ; c++) device_remove_file(&pd->dev, &lid_ctl->attrs[c]); kfree(lid_ctl); re, wh yes, there is one var more > -- > To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kernel-janitors" in > the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html > > -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe platform-driver-x86" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
