Subject: [PATCH 1/1] media: em28xx: initialize refcount before kref_get

From: Dongliang Mu <mudongliangabcd@...il.com>

[ Upstream commit c08eadca1bdfa099e20a32f8fa4b52b2f672236d ]

The commit 47677e51e2a4("[media] em28xx: Only deallocate struct
em28xx after finishing all extensions") adds kref_get to many init
functions (e.g., em28xx_audio_init). However, kref_init is called too
late in em28xx_usb_probe, since em28xx_init_dev before will invoke
those init functions and call kref_get function. Then refcount bug
occurs in my local syzkaller instance.

Fix it by moving kref_init before em28xx_init_dev. This issue occurs
not only in dev but also dev->dev_next.
