PM / devfreq: Fix devfreq_remove_device() to improve the sequence of resource free
This patch modify devfreq_remove_device() to improve the sequence of resource free. If executing existing devfreq_remove_device(), this function always executes _remove_devfreq() twice. In result, second _remove_devfreq() always return error value. So, This patch resolves complicated function sequence as following: [Flow sequence before modification] devfreq_remove_device() _remove_devfreq(devfreq, false) kfree(devfreq); /* Free devfreq */ if (!skip ...) { /* skip is false */ device_unregister(&devfreq->dev) put_device(&devfreq->dev); ... dev->release() devfreq_dev_release() _remove_devfreq(devfreq, true) <- Recall to free devfreq /* * Always return error without freeing resource because * already _remove_devfreq() frees the memory of devfreq. */ } [Flow sequence after modification] devfreq_remove_device device_unregister(&devfreq->dev) put_device(&devfreq->dev); .. dev->release() devfreq_dev_release() _remove_devfreq() kfree(devfreq); /* Free devfreq */ Signed-off-by: Chanwoo Choi <cw00.choi@samsung.com> [Merge conflict resolved by MyungJoo] Signed-off-by: MyungJoo Ham <myungjoo.ham@samsung.com>
