This reverts commit c21b4002214c1c7e7b627b9b53375612f7aab6db which is commit 0db55f9a1bafbe3dac750ea669de9134922389b5 upstream. Seems that the older kernels can not handle this fix because, to quote Christian: The problem is this memory leak could potentially happen with 5.10 as wel, just much much much less likely. But my guess is that 5.10 is so buggy that when the leak does NOT happen we double free and obviously causing a crash. So it needs to be reverted.

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.
