Memory leak in dell-smbios-wmi.c

["Xu, Pinzhen" <pinzhen.xu@xxxxxxxxx>]

There might be a possible memory leak in drivers/platform/x86/dell-smbios-wmi.c
In the `run_smbios_call' function, the buffer created via ACPI_ALLOCATE_BUFFER
within the output object is not freed properly.


Generally, this buffer should be freed using:
  kfree(output.pointer);


But it hasn't been cleaned up after a `memcpy' being done.
static int run_smbios_call(struct wmi_device *wdev)
{
      struct acpi_buffer output = {ACPI_ALLOCATE_BUFFER, NULL};
      struct wmi_smbios_priv *priv;
      struct acpi_buffer input;
      union acpi_object *obj;
      acpi_status status;

      priv = dev_get_drvdata(&wdev->dev);
      input.length = priv->req_buf_size - sizeof(u64);
      input.pointer = &priv->buf->std;

      dev_dbg(&wdev->dev, "evaluating: %u/%u [%x,%x,%x,%x]\n",
            priv->buf->std.cmd_class, priv->buf->std.cmd_select,
            priv->buf->std.input[0], priv->buf->std.input[1],
            priv->buf->std.input[2], priv->buf->std.input[3]);

      status = wmidev_evaluate_method(wdev, 0, 1, &input, &output);
      if (ACPI_FAILURE(status))
            return -EIO;
      obj = (union acpi_object *)output.pointer;
      if (obj->type != ACPI_TYPE_BUFFER) {
            dev_dbg(&wdev->dev, "received type: %d\n", obj->type);
            if (obj->type == ACPI_TYPE_INTEGER)
                  dev_dbg(&wdev->dev, "SMBIOS call failed: %llu\n",
                        obj->integer.value);
            return -EIO;
      }
      memcpy(&priv->buf->std, obj->buffer.pointer, obj->buffer.length);
      dev_dbg(&wdev->dev, "result: [%08x,%08x,%08x,%08x]\n",
            priv->buf->std.output[0], priv->buf->std.output[1],
            priv->buf->std.output[2], priv->buf->std.output[3]);

      return 0;
}
