[PATCH 4.19 43/43] regmap: debugfs: Fix a reversed if statement in regmap_debugfs_init()

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

 



From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit f6bcb4c7f366905b66ce8ffca7190118244bb642 upstream.

This code will leak "map->debugfs_name" because the if statement is
reversed so it only frees NULL pointers instead of non-NULL.  In
fact the if statement is not required and should just be removed
because kfree() accepts NULL pointers.
