Subject: [PATCH] lightnvm: pblk: Fix reference count leak in pblk_sysfs_init.
Date: Wed, 27 May 2020 16:06:28 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200527210628.9477-1-wu000273@umn.edu> (raw)

From: Qiushi Wu <wu000273@umn.edu>

kobject_init_and_add() takes reference even when it fails.
Thus, when kobject_init_and_add() returns an error,
kobject_put() must be called to properly clean up the kobject.

Fixes: a4bd217b4326 ("lightnvm: physical block device (pblk) target")
Signed-off-by: Qiushi Wu <wu000273@umn.edu>
