[PATCH 1/2] eeprom: at25: Fix SPI device leak

From: Mark Brown
Date: Wed Apr 20 2016 - 05:16:59 EST


The at25 driver is using spi_dev_get() apparently just to take a copy
of the SPI device used to instantiate it but never calls spi_dev_put()
to free it. Since the device is guaranteed to exist between probe() and
remove() there should be no need for the driver to take an extra
reference to it so fix the leak by just using a straight assignment.
