commit 70f259a3f4276b71db365b1d6ff1eab805ea6ec3 upstream. When h5_close() gets called, the memory allocated for the hu gets freed only if hu->serdev doesn't exist. This leads to a memory leak. So when h5_close() is requested, close the serdev device instance and free the memory allocated to the hu entirely instead.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
