From: Qiushi Wu <wu000...@umn.edu> [ Upstream commit c343bf1ba5efcbf2266a1fe3baefec9cc82f867f ]
kobject_init_and_add() takes reference even when it fails. If this function returns an error, kobject_put() must be called to properly clean up the memory associated with the object. Previous commit "b8eb718348b8" fixed a similar problem. Signed-off-by: Qiushi Wu <wu000...@umn.edu> [ rjw: Subject ] Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
