iio: trigger: Fix reference counting
stable inclusion from stable-v5.10.85 commit 5de9c5b13062e626c9f989d531f433a28d8c66b4 bugzilla: 186032 https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I4QVI4 Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=5de9c5b13062e626c9f989d531f433a28d8c66b4 -------------------------------- commit a827a498 upstream. In viio_trigger_alloc() device_initialize() is used to set the initial reference count of the trigger to 1. Then another get_device() is called on trigger. This sets the reference count to 2 before the trigger is returned. iio_trigger_free(), which is the matching API to viio_trigger_alloc(), calls put_device() which decreases the reference count by 1. But the second reference count acquired in viio_trigger_alloc() is never dropped. As a result the iio_trigger_release() function is never called and the memory associated with the trigger is never freed. Since there is no reason for the trigger to start its lifetime with two reference counts just remove the extra get_device() in viio_trigger_alloc(). Fixes: 5f9c035c ("staging:iio:triggers. Add a reference get to the core for triggers.")
