This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled crypto: stm32 - fix reference leak in stm32_crc_remove to the 5.17-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: crypto-stm32-fix-reference-leak-in-stm32_crc_remove.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.17 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 78a3843c6272959d46ffab6066b235c5c20b94af Author: Zheng Yongjun <zhengyongjun3@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu Mar 17 13:16:13 2022 +0000 crypto: stm32 - fix reference leak in stm32_crc_remove [ Upstream commit e9a36feecee0ee5845f2e0656f50f9942dd0bed3 ] pm_runtime_get_sync() will increment pm usage counter even it failed. Forgetting to call pm_runtime_put_noidle will result in reference leak in stm32_crc_remove, so we should fix it.
