From 879356a6a05559582b0a7895d86d2d4359745c08 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Miaoqian Lin Date: Mon, 24 Jan 2022 13:13:46 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] power: supply: ab8500: Fix memory leak in ab8500_fg_sysfs_init MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit [ Upstream commit 6a4760463dbc6b603690938c468839985189ce0a ] kobject_init_and_add() takes reference even when it fails. According to the doc of kobject_init_and_add()： If this function returns an error, kobject_put() must be called to properly clean up the memory associated with the object. Fix memory leak by calling kobject_put().
