From 8fec02a73e31407e14986fca67dab48d4f777f0e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jiri Kosina Date: Thu, 9 Apr 2015 13:32:35 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] HID: debug: fix error handling in hid_debug_events_read() In the unlikely case of hdev vanishing while hid_debug_events_read() was sleeping, we can't really break out of the case switch as with other cases, as on the way out we'll try to remove ourselves from the hdev waitqueue. Fix this by taking a shortcut exit path and avoiding cleanup that doesn't make sense in case hdev doesn't exist any more anyway.
