Subject: [PATCH] drivers/macintosh: Fix memleak in windfarm_pm112 driver
Date: Thu, 23 Apr 2020 16:00:38 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200423060038.3308530-1-mpe@ellerman.id.au> (raw)

create_cpu_loop() calls smu_sat_get_sdb_partition() which does
kmalloc() and returns the allocated buffer. In fact it's called twice,
and neither buffer is freed.

This results in a memory leak as reported by Erhard:
  unreferenced object 0xc00000047081f840 (size 32):
    comm "kwindfarm", pid 203, jiffies 4294880630 (age 5552.877s)
    hex dump (first 32 bytes):

Fix it by rearranging the logic so we deal with each buffer
separately, which then makes it easy to free the buffer once we're
done with it.
