From 9416861170ba0da8ddb0f4fd2d28334f0ed3b9c2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yang Yingliang Date: Thu, 10 Nov 2022 16:24:23 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] media: solo6x10: fix possible memory leak in solo_sysfs_init() [ Upstream commit 7f5866dd96d95b74e439f6ee17b8abd8195179fb ] If device_register() returns error in solo_sysfs_init(), the name allocated by dev_set_name() need be freed. As comment of device_register() says, it should use put_device() to give up the reference in the error path. So fix this by calling put_device(), then the name can be freed in kobject_cleanup().
