It wouldn't hurt to run Smatch over this code. git clone https://repo.or.cz/w/smatch.git cd smatch yum install gcc make sqlite3 sqlite-devel sqlite perl-DBD-SQLite openssl-devel perl-Try-Tiny make cd ~/kernel/ ~/smatch/smatch_scripts/kchecker drivers/staging/media/vxd/common/img_mem_man.c (I am the author of Smatch #BlowYourOwnTrumpet). regards, dan carpenter
