Matthew R. Ochs acfeb23b29 scsi: cxlflash: Avoid double free of character device
The device_unregister() service used when cleaning up the character
device is already responsible for the internal state associated with the
device upon successful creation. As the cxlflash driver does not obtain
a second reference to the character device, the explicit call to
put_device() is not required and can lead to an inconsistent sysfs among
other issues as the reference is no longer valid after the first
put_device() is performed.

Remove the unnecessary put_device() to remedy this issue.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
