fbdev/ep93xx-fb: Do not assign to struct fb_info.dev
commit f90a0e52 upstream. Do not assing the Linux device to struct fb_info.dev. The call to register_framebuffer() initializes the field to the fbdev device. Drivers should not override its value. Fixes a bug where the driver incorrectly decreases the hardware device's reference counter and leaks the fbdev device. v2: * add Fixes tag (Dan) Signed-off-by:Thomas Zimmermann <tzimmermann@suse.de> Fixes: 88017bda ("ep93xx video driver") Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> # v2.6.32+ Reviewed-by:
