Guangshuo Li df55842fdd intel_th: fix MSC output device reference leak 
commit 761b785a0c upstream.

intel_th_output_open() looks up the output device with
bus_find_device_by_devt(), which returns the device with a reference that
must be dropped after use.

commit 95fc36a234 ("intel_th: fix device leak on output open()")
attempted to drop the reference from intel_th_output_release(). However,
a successful open replaces file->f_op with the output driver file
operations before returning, so close runs the output driver release
callback instead.

For MSC outputs, close runs intel_th_msc_release(), which only removes
the per-file iterator and does not drop the device reference taken by
intel_th_output_open(). Consequently, every successful MSC output open
leaks one device reference.

Drop the device reference from intel_th_msc_release(), which is the
release path actually used for MSC output files. Remove the now-unused
intel_th_output_release() callback from intel_th_output_fops.

README 

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

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

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.
