[PATCH] [media] em28xx-input: fix refcount bug in em28xx_usb_disconnect
From: Dongliang Mu
Date: Tue Jul 06 2021 - 08:28:40 EST
If em28xx_ir_init fails, it would decrease the refcount of dev. However,
in the em28xx_ir_fini, when ir is NULL, it goes to ref_put and decrease
the refcount of dev. This will lead to a refcount bug.
Fix this bug by returning 0 when ir is NULL in the em28xx_ir_fini. To
simplify the refcount issue, move the kref_get after the input
extension is successfully initialized and remove the kref_put in the
error handling code.
refcount_t: underflow; use-after-free.
