Next: 2.6.35-rc3: Load average climbing to 3+ with no apparent reason: CPU 98% idle, with hardly no I/O
From: Axel Lin on 6 Jul 2010 22:30 This patch fix resource reclaim in below cases: 1. acerhdf_register_platform() does not properly handle platform_device_alloc() failure and platform_device_add() failure. This patch adds error handling for acerhdf_register_platform(). 2. acerhdf_register_platform() return err with acerhdf_dev == NULL. as a result, acerhdf_unregister_platform() does not do resource reclaim in acerhdf_init() error path. This patch adds error handing for acerhdf_register_platform(), thus correct the error handing path in acerhdf_init(). goto out_err instead of err_unreg if acerhdf_register_platform() fail. 3. platform_device_del() should be only used in error handling. Current implementation missed a platform_device_put() in acerhdf_exit. This patch fixes it by using platform_device_unregister() instead of platform_device_del() in acerhdf_unregister_platform().
