[PATCH v2] tablet: acecad: update the reference count of the usb interface structure

From: Salah Triki <salah.triki@gmail.com>

Also in: lkml
Subsystem: input (keyboard, mouse, joystick, touchscreen) drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Dmitry Torokhov, Linus Torvalds

Based on the following documentation usb_get_inf(), use usb_get_intf()
and usb_put_intf() in order to update the reference count of the usb
interface structure.

Documentation of usb_get_inf():

[quote]
Each live reference to a interface must be refcounted.

Drivers for USB interfaces should normally record such references
in their probe methods, when they bind to an interface, and release them
by calling usb_put_intf, in their disconnect methods.
