Hmm, the placement of the put_device() is indeed strange, now that I think about it. But just removing it and then having a dangling reference also seems wrong - we do get one explicitly in `zfcp_get_port_by_wwpn()`. My first thought would be to move it after the `device_unregister()` call, and before the `out:` label. -- Best Regards, Benjamin Block / Linux on IBM Z Kernel Development / IBM Systems IBM Deutschland Research & Development GmbH / https://www.ibm.com/privacy Vorsitz.
