This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled applicom: Fix PCI device refcount leak in applicom_init() to the 6.2-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: applicom-fix-pci-device-refcount-leak-in-applicom_in.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.2 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit d471857516ac578af6ea560383a7757dfd6b3158 Author: Xiongfeng Wang <wangxiongfeng2@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue Nov 22 19:40:35 2022 +0800 applicom: Fix PCI device refcount leak in applicom_init() [ Upstream commit ce4273d89c52167d6fe20572136c58117eae0657 ] As comment of pci_get_class() says, it returns a pci_device with its refcount increased and decreased the refcount for the input parameter @from if it is not NULL. If we break the loop in applicom_init() with 'dev' not NULL, we need to call pci_dev_put() to decrease the refcount. Add the missing pci_dev_put() to avoid refcount leak.
