[PATCH v2 02/37] PNPACPI: Fix device ref leaking in acpi_pnp_match

From: Yinghai Lu
Date: Sat Mar 10 2012 - 02:01:30 EST


During testing pci root bus removal, found some root bus bridge is not freed.

If booting with pnpacpi=off, those hostbridge could be freed without problem.

It turns out that some devices reference are not released during acpi_pnp_match.

That match should not hold one device ref during every calling.

Add put_device calling before returning.
