[PATCH] USB: input: gtco.c: fix usb_dev leak

From: Alexey Khoroshilov
Date: Mon Jan 27 2014 - 20:11:05 EST


There is usb_get_dev() in gtco_probe(), but there is no usb_put_dev()
anywhere in the driver.

As pointed out by Dmitry Torokhov:
The lifetime of gtco structure is already directly tied to lifetime of
usb_dev: when destroying usb_dev driver core will call remove() function
of currently bound driver (in our case gtco) which will destroy gtco
memory. Taking additional reference is not needed here.
