Subject[PATCH 4.2.y-ckt 24/98] can: gs_usb: fixed disconnect bug by removing erroneous use of kfree()
Date
4.2.8-ckt6 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

---8<------------------------------------------------------------

From: Maximilain Schneider <max@schneidersoft.net>

commit e9a2d81b1761093386a0bb8a4f51642ac785ef63 upstream.

gs_destroy_candev() erroneously calls kfree() on a struct gs_can *, which is
allocated through alloc_candev() and should instead be freed using
free_candev() alone.

The inappropriate use of kfree() causes the kernel to hang when
gs_destroy_candev() is called.

Only the struct gs_usb * which is allocated through kzalloc() should be freed
using kfree() when the device is disconnected.
