From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> debugfs_lookup() Date: Fri, 2 Sep 2022 14:56:31 +0200 [thread overview] Message-ID: <20220902125631.128329-1-gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> (raw) When calling debugfs_lookup() the result must have dput() called on it, otherwise the memory will leak over time. Fix this up by properly calling dput().
