In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: chardev: fix error handling in cdev_device_add() While doing fault injection test, I got the following report: ------------[ cut here ]------------ kobject: '(null)' (0000000039956980): is not initialized, yet kobject_put() is being called.
