[PATCH v3] platform/x86: think-lmi: Fix memory leak when showing current settings

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

 



When retriving a item string with tlmi_setting(), the result has to be
freed using kfree(). In current_value_show() however, malformed
item strings are not freed, causing a memory leak.
Fix this by eliminating the early return responsible for this.
