[PATCH 1/5] drivers/video/bf537-lq035.c: use devm_ functions

From: Damien Cassou <hidden>
Date: 2012-07-31 13:55:05
Also in: kernel-janitors, lkml
Subsystem: framebuffer layer, the rest · Maintainers: Helge Deller, Linus Torvalds

From: Damien Cassou <redacted>

The various devm_ functions allocate memory that is released when a driver
detaches.  This patch uses these functions for data that is allocated in
the probe function of a platform device and is only freed in the remove
function.
