[ Upstream commit fa865ba183d61c1ec8cbcab8573159c3b72b89a4 ] In fs_open(), 'vcc' is allocated through kmalloc() and assigned to 'atm_vcc->dev_data.' In the following execution, if an error occurs, e.g., there is no more free channel, an error code EBUSY or ENOMEM will be returned. However, 'vcc' is not deallocated, leading to memory leaks. Note that, in normal cases where fs_open() returns 0, 'vcc' will be deallocated in fs_close(). But, if fs_open() fails, there is no guarantee that fs_close() will be invoked. To fix this issue, deallocate 'vcc' before the error code is returned. Signed-off-by: Wenwen Wang <wenwen@cs.uga.edu> Signed-off-by: David S.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
