I believe simply freeing 'chip' before the 'return err;' line is all we need to fix this, but please double-check me :) Signed-off-by: Jesper Juhl Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai Signed-off-by: Jaroslav Kysela --- diff --git a/sound/pci/au88x0/au88x0.c b/sound/pci/au88x0/au88x0.c index 5ec1b6fcd5..f70286a736 100644 --- a/sound/pci/au88x0/au88x0.c +++ b/sound/pci/au88x0/au88x0.c @@ -232,6 +232,7 @@ snd_vortex_create(struct snd_card *card, struct pci_dev *pci, vortex_t ** rchip) pci_disable_device(chip->pci_dev); //FIXME: this not the right place to unregister the gameport vortex_gameport_unregister(chip); + kfree(chip); return err; }
