From da307123c621b01cce147a4be313d8a754674f63 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alan Stern Date: Tue, 8 Dec 2009 15:54:44 -0500 Subject: USB: fix bugs in usb_(de)authorize_device This patch (as1315) fixes some bugs in the USB core authorization code: usb_deauthorize_device() should deallocate the device strings instead of leaking them, and it should invoke usb_destroy_configuration() (which does proper reference counting) instead of freeing the config information directly. usb_authorize_device() shouldn't change the device strings until it knows that the authorization will succeed, and it should autosuspend the device at the end (having autoresumed the device at the start). Because the device strings can be changed, the sysfs routines to display the strings must protect the string pointers by locking the device.
