[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.4 36/37] cpuidle: Fix three reference count leaks

From: Sasha Levin
Date: Mon Jun 08 2020 - 19:35:14 EST


From: Qiushi Wu <wu000273@xxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit c343bf1ba5efcbf2266a1fe3baefec9cc82f867f ]

kobject_init_and_add() takes 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.

Previous commit "b8eb718348b8" fixed a similar problem.
