[patch 26/52] [PATCH] cio: fix double free in case of probe failure

From: Martin Schwidefsky
Date: Fri Nov 13 2009 - 10:19:45 EST


From: Peter Oberparleiter <peter.oberparleiter@xxxxxxxxxx>

io_subchannel_probe() frees memory for sch->private which is later
freed again when io_subchannel_remove() is called. Fix this problem
by removing the cleanup in io_subchannel_probe().
