From 91a1b253ed61172d87dd8c5408897c91a8ece426 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Qiushi Wu Date: Thu, 28 May 2020 15:22:37 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] EDAC: Fix reference count leaks [ Upstream commit 17ed808ad243192fb923e4e653c1338d3ba06207 ] When kobject_init_and_add() returns an error, it should be handled because kobject_init_and_add() takes a reference even when it fails. If this function returns an error, kobject_put() must be called to properly clean up the memory associated with the object. Therefore, replace calling kfree() and call kobject_put() and add a missing kobject_put() in the edac_device_register_sysfs_main_kobj() error path.
