[PATCH] ARM: imx: fix error handling in ipu device registration

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

 



From: Emil Goode <emilgoode@xxxxxxxxx>

If we fail to allocate struct platform_device pdev we
dereference it after the goto label err.

This bug was found using coccinelle.
