From a200fadca97abb337dcc28e737c1a2e11f56b714 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ian Abbott Date: Fri, 8 Nov 2013 15:03:35 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] staging: comedi: use refcount in comedi_driver_unregister() Change `comedi_driver_unregister()` to call `comedi_dev_get_from_minor()` instead of `comedi_dev_from_minor()` when finding devices using the driver. This increments the reference count to prevent the device being removed while it is being checked to see if it is attached to the driver. Call `comedi_dev_put()` to decrement the reference afterwards.
