From: Nanyong Sun Date: Wed, 8 Sep 2021 03:00:21 +0000 (-0700) Subject: nilfs2: fix memory leak in nilfs_sysfs_create_snapshot_group X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=2adce9f7eafc56cfae8d8f1d292de8cf363d0204;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2FG12%2Fandroid_kernel_amlogic_linux-4.9.git nilfs2: fix memory leak in nilfs_sysfs_create_snapshot_group [ Upstream commit b2fe39c248f3fa4bbb2a20759b4fdd83504190f7 ] If kobject_init_and_add returns with error, kobject_put() is needed here to avoid memory leak, because kobject_init_and_add may return error without freeing the memory associated with the kobject it allocated.
