Subject: reset: gpio: fix double free in reset_add_gpio_aux_device() error path
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=fbffb8c7c7bb4d38e9f65e0bee446685011de5d8;p=thirdparty%2Flinux.git

reset: gpio: fix double free in reset_add_gpio_aux_device() error path

When __auxiliary_device_add() fails, reset_add_gpio_aux_device()
calls auxiliary_device_uninit(adev).

The device release callback reset_gpio_aux_device_release() frees
adev, but the current error path then calls kfree(adev) again,
causing a double free.

Keep kfree(adev) for the auxiliary_device_init() failure path, but
avoid freeing adev after auxiliary_device_uninit().
