[PATCH 1/2] fs: btrfs: Fix error path kobject memory leak

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



If a call to kobject_init_and_add() fails we must call kobject_put()
otherwise we leak memory.

Calling kobject_put() when kobject_init_and_add() fails drops the
refcount back to 0 and calls the ktype release method.

Add call to kobject_put() in the error path of call to
kobject_init_and_add().
