If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit d579cd44ca56a6546a184a19b49213668345f141 Author: Gaosheng Cui <cuigaosheng1@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue Nov 29 20:01:26 2022 +0800 pinctrl: thunderbay: fix possible memory leak in thunderbay_build_functions() [ Upstream commit 83e1bcaf8cef26edaaf2a6098ef760f563683483 ] The thunderbay_add_functions() will free memory of thunderbay_funcs when everything is ok, but thunderbay_funcs will not be freed when thunderbay_add_functions() fails, then there will be a memory leak, so we need to add kfree() when thunderbay_add_functions() fails to fix it. In addition, doing some cleaner works, moving kfree(funcs) from thunderbay_add_functions() to thunderbay_build_functions().
