Xiyu Yang 8f8d7f07d9 staging: comedi: Fix comedi_device refcnt leak in comedi_open
commit 332e0e17ad49e084b7db670ef43b5eb59abd9e34 upstream.

comedi_open() invokes comedi_dev_get_from_minor(), which returns a
reference of the COMEDI device to "dev" with increased refcount.

When comedi_open() returns, "dev" becomes invalid, so the refcount
should be decreased to keep refcount balanced.

The reference counting issue happens in one exception handling path of
comedi_open(). When "cfp" allocation is failed, the refcnt increased by
comedi_dev_get_from_minor() is not decreased, causing a refcnt leak.

Fix this issue by calling comedi_dev_put() on this error path when "cfp"
allocation is failed.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
