Subject: mm/shrinker: fix name consistency issue in shrinker_debugfs_rename()
Date: Wed, 5 Mar 2025 15:17:59 +0800
After calling debugfs_change_name function, the return value should be
checked and the old name restored. If debugfs_change_name fails, the new
name memory should be freed. The effect is that the shrinker->name is not
consistent with the name displayed in debugfs.
