From 4881bda5ea05c8c240fc8afeaa928e2bc43f61fa Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yang Yingliang Date: Wed, 19 Oct 2022 17:30:25 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] ALSA: ac97: fix possible memory leak in snd_ac97_dev_register() If device_register() fails in snd_ac97_dev_register(), it should call put_device() to give up reference, or the name allocated in dev_set_name() is leaked.
