[PATCH 5.17 273/772] HID: elan: Fix potential double free in elan_input_configured

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Jun 07 2022 - 16:54:22 EST


From: Miaoqian Lin <linmq006@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 1af20714fedad238362571620be0bd690ded05b6 ]

'input' is a managed resource allocated with devm_input_allocate_device(),
so there is no need to call input_free_device() explicitly or
there will be a double free.

According to the doc of devm_input_allocate_device():
* Managed input devices do not need to be explicitly unregistered or
* freed as it will be done automatically when owner device unbinds from
* its driver (or binding fails).

Fixes: b7429ea53d6c ("HID: elan: Fix memleak in elan_input_configured")
Fixes: 9a6a4193d65b ("HID: Add driver for USB ELAN Touchpad")
