From: Wenwen Wang <wenwen@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 03d1571d9513369c17e6848476763ebbd10ec2cb ] In cm_write(), 'buf' is allocated through kzalloc(). In the following execution, if an error occurs, 'buf' is not deallocated, leading to memory leaks. To fix this issue, free 'buf' before returning the error.
