5.10-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Christophe JAILLET <christophe.jaillet@xxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 368e4663c557de4a33f321b44e7eeec0a21b2e4e ]
"assigned" and "assigned->name" are allocated in snd_mixer_oss_proc_write()
using kmalloc() and kstrdup(), so there is no point in using kfree_const()
to free these resources.
Switch to the more standard kfree() to free these resources.
This could avoid a memory leak.
