4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Andrew Gabbasov <andrew_gabbasov@xxxxxxxxxx> commit ff74745e6d3d97a865eda8c1f3fd29c13b79f0cc upstream. Kmemleak checking configuration reports a memory leak in usb_os_desc_prepare_interf_dir function when rndis function instance is freed and then allocated again. For example, this happens with FunctionFS driver with RNDIS function enabled when "ffs-test" test application is run several times in a row. The data for intermediate "os_desc" group for interface directories is allocated as a single VLA chunk and (after a change of default groups handling) is not ever freed and actually not stored anywhere besides inside a list of default groups of a parent group. The fix is to make usb_os_desc_prepare_interf_dir function return a pointer to allocated data (as a pointer to the first VLA item) instead of (an unused) integer and to make the caller component (currently the only one is RNDIS function) responsible for storing the pointer and freeing the memory when appropriate.
