[PATCH 4.19 36/93] USB: legousbtower: fix memleak on disconnect

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

 



From: Johan Hovold <johan@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit b6c03e5f7b463efcafd1ce141bd5a8fc4e583ae2 upstream.

If disconnect() races with release() after a process has been
interrupted, release() could end up returning early and the driver would
fail to free its driver data.
