Subject: [PATCH] Input: Fix a ref counting issue
Date: Sun, 29 Nov 2020 09:45:16 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201129084516.1456099-1-christophe.jaillet@wanadoo.fr> (raw)

In case of a managed resource, 'devm_input_device_release()' already has a
'input_put_device(dev)' call.

Avoid a double reference decrement by explicitly calling
'input_put_device()' only on non-managed input device.

Fixes: 2be975c6d920 ("Input: introduce managed input devices (add devres support)")
