Subject: [netdrvr] depca: handle platform_device_add() failure
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d91c088b39e3c66d309938de858775bb90fd1ead;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

[netdrvr] depca: handle platform_device_add() failure

The following patch fixes a kernel bug in depca_platform_probe().

We don't use a dynamic pointer for pldev->dev.platform_data, so it seems
that the correct way to proceed if platform_device_add(pldev) fails is
to explicitly set the pldev->dev.platform_data pointer to NULL, before
calling the platform_device_put(pldev), or it will be kfree'ed by
platform_device_release().
