firewire: net: fix unexpected release of object for asynchronous request packet
The lifetime of object for asynchronous request packet is now maintained by reference counting, while current implementation of firewire-net releases the passed object in the handler. This commit fixes the bug. Reported-by: Dan Carpenter <error27@gmail.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/Y%2Fymx6WZIAlrtjLc@workstation/ Fixes: 13a55d6bb15f ("firewire: core: use kref structure to maintain lifetime of data for fw_request structure") Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20230510031205.782032-1-o-takashi@sakamocchi.jp/ Signed-off-by: Takashi Sakamoto <o-takashi@sakamocchi.jp>
