Subject: HID: fix incorrect free in hiddev
X-Git-Url: http://pilppa.com/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=48e7a3c95c9f98c2cb6f894820e3cc2d0448e92f;p=linux-2.6-omap-h63xx.git

HID: fix incorrect free in hiddev

If hiddev_open() fails, it wrongly frees the shared hiddev structure
kept in hiddev_table instead of the hiddev_list structure allocated
for the opened file descriptor.  Existing references to this structure
will then accessed free memory.

This was introduced by 079034073 "HID: hiddev cleanup -- handle all
error conditions properly".
