[PATCH 3.18 128/151] KVM: s390: avoid memory leaks if __inject_vm() fails

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Wed Mar 04 2015 - 02:21:51 EST


3.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: David Hildenbrand <dahi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 428d53be5e7468769d4e7899cca06ed5f783a6e1 upstream.

We have to delete the allocated interrupt info if __inject_vm() fails.

Otherwise user space can keep flooding kvm with floating interrupts and
provoke more and more memory leaks.
