From: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@xxxxxxxxx> This patch fixes the following problem indicated by kmemleak: kmemleak: unreferenced object 0xdf93c280 (size 64): kmemleak: backtrace: kmemleak: [<c00df6d4>] create_object+0x104/0x200 kmemleak: [<c00d7638>] kmem_cache_alloc+0xe4/0xf4 kmemleak: [<c000fc38>] omap_devinit_smartreflex+0x44/0x244 kmemleak: [<c003a33c>] do_one_initcall+0x5c/0x1b8 kmemleak: [<c00083fc>] kernel_init+0x94/0x110 kmemleak: [<c003ba04>] kernel_thread_exit+0x0/0x8 The reason is that 'omap_devinit_smartreflex()' allocates 'sr_data', then passes it to 'omap_device_build()', which 'kmemdup()'s it and uses the copy. But 'omap_devinit_smartreflex()' never frees 'sr_data'. This patch make 'sr_data' to be a stack variable, which eliminates the memory leak and simplifies the code a bit.
