As the mention in commmit f7452a7e96c1 ("RDMA/rtrs-srv: fix memory leak by missing kobject free"), it was intended to remove the kobject_del for srv_path->kobj. f7452a7e96c1 said: >This patch moves kobject_del() into free_sess() so that the kobject of > rtrs_srv_sess can be freed. This patch also move rtrs_srv_destroy_once_sysfs_root_folders back to 'if (srv_path->kobj.state_in_sysfs)' block to avoid a 'held lock freed!'
