Subject: [PATCH 1/3] Input: goodix - Fix double free on managed resource

As described in the documentation for devm_input_allocate_device():

Managed input devices do not need to be explicitly unregistered or
freed as it will be done automatically when owner device unbinds from
its driver (or binding fails).

However this driver was explicitly freeing the input device.

Remove the calls to input_free_device() to avoid a possible double free
error.

Subject: [PATCH 3/3] HID: wacom: Fix double free on managed resource

As described in the documentation for devm_input_allocate_device():

Managed input devices do not need to be explicitly unregistered or
freed as it will be done automatically when owner device unbinds from
its driver (or binding fails).

However this driver was explicitly freeing the input device, allocated
using devm_input_allocate_device() through wacom_allocate_input().

Remove the calls to input_free_device() to avoid a possible double free
error.

Actually calling input_free_device() on a devm allocated input device
is fine. The input subsystem has chosen to not have a
separate devm_input_free_device(), instead input_free_device() knows
if a device is allocated through devm and then also frees the devres
tied to it:

void input_free_device(struct input_dev *dev)
{
if (dev) {
if (dev->devres_managed)
WARN_ON(devres_destroy(dev->dev.parent,
devm_input_device_release,
devm_input_device_match,
dev));
input_put_device(dev);
}
}

So there is no need for this patch.

Regards,

Hans

I don't know what tree you've based this on, but the above code has been replaced
with the new input_copy_abs helper in Linus' current master branch:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/drivers/input/touchscreen/goodix.c#n310

And this code has also already been fixed, so this patch can be dropped.
