[007/111] Staging: panel: Prevent double-calling of parport_release - fix oops.

From: Greg KH
Date: Wed Aug 11 2010 - 20:44:55 EST


2.6.32-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Peter Huewe <peterhuewe@xxxxxx>

commit 060132ae42cce3f9d2fd34d9a17b98362b44b9f9 upstream.

This patch prevents the code from calling parport_release and
parport_unregister_device twice with the same arguments - and thus fixes an oops.

Rationale:
After the first call the parport is already released and the
handle isn't valid anymore and calling parport_release and
parport_unregister_device twice isn't a good idea.
