[PATCH libevdev 4/4] Fix memory leaks when failing to create a uinput device
Peter Hutterer

Wed Feb 26 19:25:54 PST 2014
For an invalid fd, or a failure to open the device, the pre-allocated uinput
device struct would leak.
We can drop the open_uinput() function now, since skipping to the error
handling means we'll return -errno anyway.
