From e534f3e9429feb99ea133dfd5618b0dfc5af8a00 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Himangi Saraogi Date: Fri, 7 Mar 2014 21:39:27 +0530 Subject: [PATCH] staging:nvec: Introduce the use of the managed version of kzalloc This patch moves shared private data kzalloc to managed devm_kzalloc. There are no kfree statements associated with this data, so using devm adds the possibility of the data being freed, if the proble function fails (if that is possible) or if the remove function succeeds.
