EDAC: Fix reference count leaks
[ Upstream commit 17ed808ad243192fb923e4e653c1338d3ba06207 ] When kobject_init_and_add() returns an error, it should be handled because kobject_init_and_add() takes a reference even when it fails. If this function returns an error, kobject_put() must be called to properly clean up the memory associated with the object. Therefore, replace calling kfree() and call kobject_put() and add a missing kobject_put() in the edac_device_register_sysfs_main_kobj() error path. [ bp: Massage and merge into a single patch. ] Fixes: b2ed215a3338 ("Kobject: change drivers/edac to use kobject_init_and_add") Signed-off-by: Qiushi Wu <wu000273@umn.edu> Signed-off-by: Borislav Petkov <bp@suse.de> Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200528202238.18078-1-wu000273@umn.edu Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200528203526.20908-1-wu000273@umn.edu Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>
