4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Srinivas Kandagatla <srinivas.kandagatla@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 4a2e84c6ed85434ce7843e4844b4d3263f7e233b upstream. All the managed resources would be freed by the time release function is invoked. Handling such memory in qcom_smd_edge_release() would do bad things. Found this issue while testing Audio usecase where the dsp is started up and shutdown in a loop. This patch fixes this issue by using simple kzalloc for allocating channel->name and channel which is then freed in qcom_smd_edge_release(). Without this patch restarting a remoteproc would crash the system.
