bpf, verifier: Fix memory leak in array reallocation for stack state
[ Upstream commit 42378a9ca55347102bbf86708776061d8fe3ece2 ]
If an error (NULL) is returned by krealloc(), callers of realloc_array()
were setting their allocation pointers to NULL, but on error krealloc()
does not touch the original allocation. This would result in a memory
resource leak. Instead, free the old allocation on the error handling
path.
The memory leak information is as follows as also reported by Zhengchao:
unreferenced object 0xffff888019801800 (size 256):
comm "bpf_repo", pid 6490, jiffies 4294959200 (age 17.170s)
