[PATCH]s390/char/vmur.c: memory leak Fix in the driver

From: Chen, Dennis (SRDC SW)
Date: Sat Mar 17 2012 - 15:41:37 EST


This patch is used to fix a memory leak issue in s390/char/vmur.c: a character device instance is
allocated by cdev_alloc, the cdev_del will not free that space if cdev_init is applied before.
