[PATCH 4.5 090/238] tpm: fix the cleanup of struct tpm_chip

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



4.5-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Jarkko Sakkinen <jarkko.sakkinen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 8e0ee3c9faed7ca68807ea45141775856c438ac0 upstream.

If the initialization fails before tpm_chip_register(), put_device()
will be not called, which causes release callback not to be called.
This patch fixes the issue by adding put_device() to devres list of
the parent device.

Fixes: 313d21eeab ("tpm: device class for tpm")
