From 6a9a733edd46732e906d976dc21a42dd361e53cc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Brian King Date: Wed, 1 Feb 2023 13:57:38 -0600 Subject: [PATCH] hvcs: Fix hvcs port reference counting The hvcs driver only ever gets two references to the port. One at initialization time, and one at install time. Remove the code that was trying to do multiple port puts for each open, which would result in more puts than gets.
