From: Wenwen Wang <wenwen@xxxxxxxxxx> In blk_mq_init_allocated_queue(), a kernel buffer is allocated through kcalloc_node() to hold hardware dispatch queues in the request queue 'q', i.e., 'q->queue_hw_ctx'. Later on, if the blk-mq device has no scheduler set, a scheduler will be initialized through elevator_init_mq(). If this initialization fails, blk_mq_init_allocated_queue() needs to be terminated with an error code returned to indicate this failure. However, the allocated buffer is not freed on this execution path, leading to a memory leak bug. Moreover, the required cleanup work is also missed on this path. To fix the above issues, free the allocated buffer and invoke the cleanup functions.
