This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled USB: UDC core: fix double-free in usb_add_gadget_udc_release to my usb git tree which can be found at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/usb.git in the usb-linus branch. The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree (usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.) The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the next -rc kernel release. If you have any questions about this process, please let me know. >From 7ae2c3c280db183ca9ada2675c34ec2f7378abfa Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alan Stern <stern@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 3 Jan 2018 12:51:51 -0500 Subject: USB: UDC core: fix double-free in usb_add_gadget_udc_release The error-handling pathways in usb_add_gadget_udc_release() are messed up. Aside from the uninformative statement labels, they can deallocate the udc structure after calling put_device(), which is a double-free. This was observed by KASAN in automatic testing. This patch cleans up the routine. It preserves the requirement that when any failure occurs, we call put_device(&gadget->dev).
