Subject: [PATCHv2 01/10] vfio/mdev: Avoid release parent reference during error path
Date: Tue, 30 Apr 2019 17:49:28 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190430224937.57156-2-parav@mellanox.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190430224937.57156-1-parav@mellanox.com>

During mdev parent registration in mdev_register_device(),
if parent device is duplicate, it releases the reference of existing
parent device.
This is incorrect. Existing parent device should not be touched.

Fixes: 7b96953bc640 ("vfio: Mediated device Core driver")
