From 093c48213ee37c3c3ff1cf5ac1aa2a9d8bc66017 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Wenwen Wang Date: Wed, 26 Dec 2018 20:15:13 -0600 Subject: [PATCH] gdrom: fix a memory leak bug In probe_gdrom(), the buffer pointed by 'gd.cd_info' is allocated through kzalloc() and is used to hold the information of the gdrom device. To register and unregister the device, the pointer 'gd.cd_info' is passed to the functions register_cdrom() and unregister_cdrom(), respectively. However, this buffer is not freed after it is used, which can cause a memory leak bug. This patch simply frees the buffer 'gd.cd_info' in exit_gdrom() to fix the above issue.
