[added to the 3.18 stable tree] iio: gyro: hid-sensor-gyro-3d: Fix memory leak in probe()

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

 



From: Fabio Estevam <fabio.estevam@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

This patch has been added to the 3.18 stable tree. If you have any
objections, please let us know.

===============

[ Upstream commit d8c9d23e29e3d758ea477adaa95e28cbf3556518 ]

'channels' is allocated via kmemdup and it is never freed in the
subsequent error paths.

Use 'indio_dev->channels' directly instead, so that we avoid such
memory leak problem.
