Subject: [PATCH] omapfb: Fix reference count leak in display_init_sysfs.
Date: Thu, 28 May 2020 14:44:23 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200528194424.11596-1-wu000273@umn.edu> (raw)

From: Qiushi Wu <wu000273@umn.edu>

kobject_init_and_add() takes reference even when it fails.
If this function returns an error, kobject_put() must be called to
properly clean up the memory associated with the object.
Because function omap_dss_put_device() doesn't handle dssdev->kobj,
thus we need insert kobject_put() to clean up the kobject,
when kobject_init_and_add() fails.

Fixes: f76ee892a99e ("omapfb: copy omapdss & displays for omapfb")
Signed-off-by: Qiushi Wu <wu000273@umn.edu>
