[PATCH AUTOSEL 5.15 44/50] kernel/power/energy_model.c: fix memory leak with using debugfs_lookup()

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

 



From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit a0bc3f78d0fffa8be1a73bf945a43bfe1c2871c1 ]

When calling debugfs_lookup() the result must have dput() called on it,
otherwise the memory will leak over time.  To make things simpler, just
call debugfs_lookup_and_remove() instead which handles all of the logic
at once.
