> Subject: [PATCH] bus/vdev: fix devargs memory leak
>
> When a device is created by a secondary process, an empty devargs is
> temporarily generated and bound to it. This causes the device to not be
> associated with the correct devargs, and the empty devargs are not released
> when the resource is freed.
>
> This patch fixes the issue by matching the devargs when inserting a device in
> secondary process.
