Si la llamada a kernfs_find_and_get() falla, entonces kn ser\u00e1 NULL, por lo que no se llamar\u00e1 a la rutina complementaria sysfs_unbreak_active_protection() (y solo causar\u00eda una infracci\u00f3n de acceso al intentar eliminar la referencia a kn-\u0026gt;parent si se llamara). Como resultado, la referencia a kobj adquirida al inicio de la funci\u00f3n nunca se publicar\u00e1.
