Hi all, I see some discrepancy in how the function: kobject_init_and_add is used in various places of the kernel. According to the docs, when kobject_init_and_add fails, the caller is supposed to call kobject_put on the corresponding kobj. We found several instances where this is indeed true: https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/source/drivers/block/pktcdvd.c#L131 However, there are again several places where this is not the case. For instance: https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/kernel/sched/cpufreq_schedutil.c#L754 Why is this discrepancy? Should these be fixed to add kobject_put in their error path? -Best, Aravind
