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

 



From: Guido Martínez <guido@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

This patch has been added to the 3.12 stable tree. If you have any
objections, please let us know.

===============

commit c9a3ad25eddfdb898114a9d73cdb4c3472d9dfca upstream.

display_timings_release calls kfree on the display_timings object passed
to it. Calling kfree after it is wrong. SLUB debug showed the following
warning:

    =============================================================================
    BUG kmalloc-64 (Tainted: G        W    ): Object already free
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
