Subject: RDMA/ocrdma: fix double free on pd
From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 4dc544427991e3cef38ce3ae124b7e6557063bd3 upstream.
A reorganisation of the PD allocation and deallocation in commit
9ba1377daa ("RDMA/ocrdma: Move PD resource management to driver.")
introduced a double free on pd, as detected by static analysis by
smatch:
drivers/infiniband/hw/ocrdma/ocrdma_verbs.c:682 ocrdma_alloc_pd()
error: double free of 'pd'^
The original call to ocrdma_mbx_dealloc_pd() (which does not kfree
pd) was replaced with a call to _ocrdma_dealloc_pd() (which does
kfree pd). The kfree following this call causes the double free,
so just remove it to fix the problem.
