The patch spi: gpio: prevent memory leak in spi_gpio_probe has been applied to the spi tree at https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/spi.git for-5.4 All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted. You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed. If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing patches will not be replaced. Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying to this mail. Thanks, Mark >From d3b0ffa1d75d5305ebe34735598993afbb8a869d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Navid Emamdoost <navid.emamdoost@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 30 Sep 2019 15:52:40 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] spi: gpio: prevent memory leak in spi_gpio_probe In spi_gpio_probe an SPI master is allocated via spi_alloc_master, but this controller should be released if devm_add_action_or_reset fails, otherwise memory leaks. In order to avoid leak spi_contriller_put must be called in case of failure for devm_add_action_or_reset.
