Date: Fri, 2 Jan 2015 14:47:40 -0500 From: Sasha Levin <sasha.levin@...cle.com> To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Cc: Sasha Levin <sasha.levin@...cle.com>, Rusty Russell <rusty@...tcorp.com.au>, "Michael S. Tsirkin" <mst@...hat.com>, virtualization@...ts.linux-foundation.org (open list:VIRTIO CORE, NET...) Subject: [PATCH 2/2] virtio: don't free memory until the underlying struct device has been released When releasing a virtio device, We can't free a struct virtio_device until the underlying struct device has been released, which might not happen immediately on device_unregister() even if that was the device's last reference. Instead, free the memory only once we know the device is gone in the release callback.
