That's a nasty bug that took me a lot of time to track, and whose solution took just one line to solve. The best fragrances and the worse poisons are shipped on the smalest bottles. The drivers/pci/quick.c implements the pci_get_device function. The normal behavior is that you call it, the function returns you a pdev pointer and increment pdev->kobj.kref.refcount of the pci device. However, if you want to keep searching an object, you need to pass the previous pdev function to the search. When you use a not null pointer to pdev "from" field, pci_get_device will decrement pdev->kobj.kref.refcount, assuming that the driver won't be using the previous pdev. The solution is simple: we just need to call pci_dev_get() manually, for the pdev's that the driver will actually use. Signed-off-by: NMauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@redhat.com>
