From: Sowmini Varadhan <sowmini.varadhan@xxxxxxxxxx> This patch has been added to the 3.12 stable tree. If you have any objections, please let us know. =============== [ Upstream commit a4b70a07ed12a71131cab7adce2ce91c71b37060 ] Nothing cleans up the objects created by vnet_new(), they are completely leaked. vnet_exit(), after doing the vio_unregister_driver() to clean up ports, should call a helper function that iterates over vnet_list and cleans up those objects. This includes unregister_netdevice() as well as free_netdev().
