Fix memory leak and move to modern scope based rollback

[PATCH v1 0/2] Fix memory leak and move to modern scope based rollback

Posted by Michal Wilczynski 2 years, 4 months ago

In acpi_nfit_init_interleave_set() there is a memory leak + improper use
of devm_*() family of functions for local memory allocations. This patch
series provides two commits - one is meant as a bug fix, and could
potentially be backported, and the other one improves old style rollback
with scope based, similar to C++ RAII [1].
