Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> media: solo6x10: fix possible memory leak in solo_sysfs_init()<br /> <br /> If device_register() returns error in solo_sysfs_init(), the<br /> name allocated by dev_set_name() need be freed. As comment of<br /> device_register() says, it should use put_device() to give up<br /> the reference in the error path. So fix this by calling<br /> put_device(), then the name can be freed in kobject_cleanup().
