[PATCH] hidinput: kernel oops in out_cleanup in function hidinput_connect

From: Benjamin Tissoires
Date: Tue Feb 15 2011 - 09:41:15 EST


Goto out_cleanup infers a kernel oops: hidinput_disconnect calls
input_unregister_driver to all members of hid->inputs.
However, hidinput already has been added to hid->inputs even
though input_register_device was not called.

Hi,

while playing with hidinput_connect, I found this bug.

Cheers,
Benjamin
