3.2.85-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Johan Hovold <johan@xxxxxxxxxx> commit d6124b409ca33c100170ffde51cd8dff761454a1 upstream. This subsystem consistently fails to drop the device reference taken by class_find_device(). Note that some of these lookup functions already take a reference to the returned data, while others claim no reference is needed (or does not seem need one).
