From 7c7a9bccd2ba9f17e4b588461f140578a0a7b073 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Roland Dreier Date: Tue, 12 Feb 2008 14:38:27 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] IB/cm: Fix infiniband_cm class kobject ref counting Commit 9af57b7a ("IB/cm: Add basic performance counters") introduced a bug in how the reference count for cm_class.subsys.kobj was handled: the path that released a device did a kobject_put() on that kobject, but there was no kobject_get() in the path the handles adding a device. So the reference count ended up too low, which leads to bad things. Fix up and simplify the reference counting to avoid this. (Actually, I introduced the bug when fixing the patch up to match some of Greg's kobject changes, but who's counting) Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier --- Reading git-format-patch failed
