From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@xxxxxxx> We only can try to allocate memory for saving the NVS region if it is known that the target system sleep state is valid. Otherwise we will leak memory if suspend_nvs_alloc() is successful and the target state is invalid, because suspend_nvs_free() will not be called in that case. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
