Fix the error handling in the EFIFB driver if platform_driver_probe() fails. In that case, the code will pass the driver struct to the _device_ unregistration function. It presumably should pass a pointer to the device struct instead. The compiler gives the following warning to indicate this: drivers/video/efifb.c: In function 'efifb_init': drivers/video/efifb.c:544:3: warning: passing argument 1 of 'platform_device_unregister' from incompatible pointer type include/linux/platform_device.h:40:13: note: expected 'struct platform_device *' but argument is of type 'struct platform_driver *' Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> cc: Peter Jones <pjones@redhat.com> cc: linux-fbdev@vger.kernel.org cc: stable@kernel.org --- drivers/video/efifb.c | 2 +- 1 files changed, 1 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-fbdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
