As comment of device_register() says, it\nshould use put_device() to give up the reference in the error path. So fix\nthis by calling put_device(), then the name can be freed in kobject_cleanup().\nThe 'tl_hba' will be freed in tcm_loop_release_adapter(), so it don't need\ngoto error label in this case.\n\n## Affected\n\n- `Linux >= 3703b2c5d041a68095cdd22380c23ce27d449ad7 < 41a6b8b527a5957fab41c3c05e25ad125268e2e9`\n- `Linux >= 3703b2c5d041a68095cdd22380c23ce27d449ad7 < 28f7ff5e7559d226e63c7c5de74eb075a83d8c53`\n- `Linux >= 3703b2c5d041a68095cdd22380c23ce27d449ad7 < 75205f1b47a88c3fac4f30bd7567e89b2887c7fd`\n- `Linux >= 3703b2c5d041a68095cdd22380c23ce27d449ad7 < a636772988bafab89278e7bb3420d8e8eacfe912`\n- `Linux >= 3703b2c5d041a68095cdd22380c23ce27d449ad7 < dce0589a3faec9e2e543e97bca7e62592ec85585`\n- `Linux >= 3703b2c5d041a68095cdd22380c23ce27d449ad7 < bc68e428d4963af0201e92159629ab96948f0893`\n- `Linux 2.6.39`\n\n## Remediation\n\nRefer to the linked advisories for vendor-supplied fixes and affected version ranges.","depth":"sunlit","depthScore":3,"depthScoreParts":{"impact":2.8,"likelihood":0,"exploitation":0,"ransomware":0},"changes":[]}
