Subject: [PATCH] misc: ocxl: fix possible double free in ocxl_file_register_afu
Date: Mon, 18 Apr 2022 16:57:58 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220418085758.38145-1-hbh25y@gmail.com> (raw)
info_release() will be called in device_unregister() when info->dev's
reference count is 0. So there is no need to call ocxl_afu_put() and
kfree() again.
Fix this by adding free_minor() and return to err_unregister error path.
Fixes: 75ca758adbaf ("ocxl: Create a clear delineation between ocxl backend & frontend")
