[ Upstream commit d4fddac5a51c378c5d3e68658816c37132611e1f ] In test_firmware_init(), the buffer pointed to by the global pointer 'test_fw_config' is allocated through kzalloc(). Then, the buffer is initialized in __test_firmware_config_init(). In the case that the initialization fails, the following execution in test_firmware_init() needs to be terminated with an error code returned to indicate this failure. However, the allocated buffer is not freed on this execution path, leading to a memory leak bug. To fix the above issue, free the allocated buffer before returning from test_firmware_init().

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.
