    commit 8b51dc7291473093c821195c4b6af85fadedbc2f
    category: 13690
    bugzilla: NA
    CVE: CVE-2019-15504
    
    -------------------------------------------------
    
    `dev` (struct rsi_91x_usbdev *) field of adapter
    (struct rsi_91x_usbdev *) is allocated  and initialized in
    `rsi_init_usb_interface`. If any error is detected in information
    read from the device side,  `rsi_init_usb_interface` will be
    freed. However, in the higher level error handling code in
    `rsi_probe`, if error is detected, `rsi_91x_deinit` is called
    again, in which `dev` will be freed again, resulting double free.
    
    This patch fixes the double free by removing the free operation on
    `dev` in `rsi_init_usb_interface`, because `rsi_91x_deinit` is also
    used in `rsi_disconnect`, in that code path, the `dev` field is not
     (and thus needs to be) freed.
    
    This bug was found in v4.19, but is also present in the latest version
    of kernel. Fixes CVE-2019-15504.
