From e2b348354112df63a9c2ea4219a6867c6c7ea100 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Steffen Klassert Date: Wed, 10 Nov 2010 12:21:43 +0100 Subject: crypto: pcrypt - Fix use after free on padata_free kobject_put is called from padata_free for the padata kobject. The kobject's release function frees the padata instance, so don't call kobject_put for the padata kobject from pcrypt.
