[PATCH][next] libata: ensure host is free'd on error exit paths

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

The host structure is not being kfree'd on two error exit paths
leading to memory leaks. Add in new err_free label and kfree host.

Detected by CoverityScan, CID#1466103 ("Resource leak")

Fixes: 2623c7a5f279 ("libata: add refcounting to ata_host")
