From da36a2a76b01b210ffaa55cdc2c99bc8783697c5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yang Yingliang Date: Thu, 10 Nov 2022 23:24:41 +0800 Subject: xen/pcpu: fix possible memory leak in register_pcpu() In device_add(), dev_set_name() is called to allocate name, if it returns error, the name need be freed. As comment of device_register() says, it should use put_device() to give up the reference in the error path. So fix this by calling put_device(), then the name can be freed in kobject_cleanup().
