[PATCH] : media : hackrf : memory leak

2019-01-27 Thread Yavuz, Tuba
Due to a missing v4l2_device_get function in the hackrf_probe function,  the reference count of the v4l2_device object reaches zero inside the  wrong API function (video_unregister_device) instead of v4l2_device_put.  This causes a memory leak as the release callback would not get called.
