From: Wenwen Wang <wenwen@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 1eca92eef18719027d394bf1a2d276f43e7cf886 ] In cx82310_bind(), 'dev->partial_data' is allocated through kmalloc(). Then, the execution waits for the firmware to become ready. If the firmware is not ready in time, the execution is terminated. However, the allocated 'dev->partial_data' is not deallocated on this path, leading to a memory leak bug. To fix this issue, free 'dev->partial_data' before returning the error.
