[PATCH 4.4 079/131] stm class: Do not leak the chrdev in error path

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

 



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

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

[ Upstream commit cbe4a61d1ddc4790d950ca8c33ef79ee68ef5e2b ]

Currently, the error path of stm_register_device() forgets to unregister
the chrdev. Fix this.
