If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Alex Williamson commit 0372ffb35d00288802265586a29c117911d02fb8 upstream. bus_find_device_by_name() acquires a device reference which is never released. This results in an object leak, which on older kernels results in failure to release all resources of PCI devices. libvirt uses drivers_probe to re-attach devices to the host after assignment and is therefore a common trigger for this leak.
