From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@xxxxxxx> commit 13a79f14ab285120bc4977e00a7c731e8143f548 upstream. dvb_usb_device_init() allocates a dvb_usb_device object, but it doesn't release the object by itself even at errors. The object is released in the callee side (dvb_usb_init()) in some error cases via dvb_usb_exit() call, but it also missed the object free in other error paths. And, the caller (it's only dvb_usb_device_init()) doesn't seem caring the resource management as well, hence those memories are leaked. This patch assures releasing the memory at the error path in dvb_usb_device_init(). Now dvb_usb_init() frees the resources it allocated but leaves the passed dvb_usb_device object intact. In turn, the dvb_usb_device object is released in dvb_usb_device_init() instead. We could use dvb_usb_exit() function for releasing everything in the callee (as it was used for some error cases in the original code), but releasing the passed object in the callee is non-intuitive and error-prone. So I took this approach (which is more standard in Linus kernel code) although it ended with a bit more open codes. Along with the change, the patch makes sure that USB intfdata is reset and don't return the bogus pointer to the caller of dvb_usb_device_init() at the error path, too.
