[PATCH] sysrq: Auto release device node using __free attribute

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

 



Add a cleanup function attribute '__free(device_node)' to the device node
pointer initialization statement and remove the pairing cleanup function
call of 'of_node_put' at the end of the function.
The '_free()' attrubute is introduced by scope-based resource management
in-kernel framework implemented in 'cleanup.h'. A pointer marked with
'__free()' attribute makes a compiler insert a cleanup function call
to the places where the pointer goes out of the scope. This feature
allows to get rid of manual cleanup function calls.
