commit f5e94b4c6e upstream.
When get_synthdev() is called for a MIDI device, it returns the fixed
midi_synth_dev without the use refcounting. OTOH, the caller is
supposed to unreference unconditionally after the usage, so this would
lead to unbalanced refcount.
This patch corrects the behavior and keep up the refcount balance also
for the MIDI synth device.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
