There may be a patch that solves that, but it's never been submitted to

That patch looks sane to me, but I guess Guenter would need to check
... Guenter?


That patch is (and has been) in linux-next for a long time,
as commit d2ca1fd2bc70, and with the following tags.

Fixes: 7719a68b2fa4 ("ARM: 9192/1: amba: fix memory leak in amba_device_try_add()")
Reported-by: Guenter Roeck <linux@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
Tested-by: Guenter Roeck <linux@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
Signed-off-by: Kefeng Wang <wangkefeng.wang@xxxxxxxxxx>
Signed-off-by: Russell King (Oracle) <rmk+kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

So, yes, it fixes the problem. I don't know where it is pulled from, though.
I thought that it is from Russell's tree, given his Signed-off-by:,
but I never really checked.
