[PATCH] mmc: sdhci-of-bst: Fix memory leak in sdhci_bst_alloc_bounce_buffer()
Posted by Felix Gu 1 month, 2 weeks ago
In sdhci_bst_alloc_bounce_buffer(), if dma_alloc_coherent() fails, the
function immediately returns -ENOMEM without releasing the reserved
memory, which results in a memory leak.

Add the missing of_reserved_mem_device_release() call before returning
-ENOMEM to properly clean up the reserved memory.

Fixes: 695824f45629 ("mmc: sdhci: add Black Sesame Technologies BST C1200 controller driver")

Please use the same expression for the device as the rest of the
function i.e. change "mmc_dev(host->mmc)" to "mmc_dev(mmc)"

Hi Adrian,
I will update it in V2.
