debugfs_create_u32_array() allocates a small structure to wrap the data and size information about the array. If users ever try to remove the file this leads to a leak since nothing ever frees this wrapper. That said there are no upstream users of debugfs_create_u32_array() that'd remove a u32 array file (we only have one u32 array user in CMA), so there is no real bug here. Make callers pass a wrapper they allocated. This way the lifetime management of the wrapper is on the caller, and we can avoid the potential leak in debugfs.

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.
