From 54f5968db9e09de8779b5a5174719af51f1da199 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Levente Kurusa Date: Thu, 30 Jan 2014 15:45:45 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] drivers/video/backlight/lcd.c: call put_device if device_register fails Currently we kfree the container of the device which failed to register. This is wrong as the last reference is not given up with a put_device call. Also, now that we have put_device() callen, we no longer need the kfree as the new_ld->dev.release function will take care of kfreeing the associated memory.
