Checking where the error happens:
(gdb) list *au8522_probe+0x19a
0x99a is in au8522_probe (drivers/media/dvb-frontends/au8522_decoder.c:761).
756 printk(KERN_INFO "au8522_decoder attach existing instance.\n");
757 break;
758 }
759
760 demod_config = kzalloc(sizeof(struct au8522_config), GFP_KERNEL);
761 if (demod_config == NULL) {
762 if (instance == 1)
763 kfree(state);
764 return -ENOMEM;
765 }
Shows that the error path is not being handled properly.
The are actually several issues here:
1) config free should have been calling hybrid_tuner_release_state()
function, by calling au8522_release_state();
2) config is only allocated at the digital part. On the analog one,
it is received from the caller.
A complex logic could be added to address it, however, it is simpler
to just embeed config inside the state.
