commit 98f5f932254b88ce828bc8e4d1642d14e5854caa upstream. The leak was found when opening/closing a serial port a great number of time, increasing kmalloc-32 in slabinfo. Each time the port was opened, dma_request_slave_channel() was called. Then, in at_dma_xlate(), atslave was allocated with devm_kzalloc() and never freed. (Well, it was free at module unload, but that's not what we want). So, here, kzalloc is more suited for the job since it has to be freed in atc_free_chan_resources().

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.
