[PATCH AUTOSEL 6.2 50/64] tty: pcn_uart: fix memory leak with using debugfs_lookup()

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

 



From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 04a189c720aa2b6091442113ce9b9bc93552dff8 ]

When calling debugfs_lookup() the result must have dput() called on it,
otherwise the memory will leak over time.  To make things simpler, just
call debugfs_lookup_and_remove() instead which handles all of the logic
at once.
