From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 8deb87b1e810dd558371e88ffd44339fbef27870 ] When calling debugfs_lookup() the result must have dput() called on it, otherwise the memory will leak over time. To make things simpler, just call debugfs_lookup_and_remove() instead which handles all of the logic at once. Cc: "Rafael J.
