[PATCH] thermal: cpu_cooling: Remove usage of devm functions

From: Vaishali Thakkar
Date: Wed Aug 19 2015 - 02:22:27 EST


In the function cpufreq_get_requested_power, the memory allocated
for load_cpu is live within the function only. And after the
allocation it is immediately freed with devm_kfree. There is no
need to allocate memory for load_cpu with devm function so replace
devm_kcalloc with kcalloc and devm_kfree with kfree.

This patch is having one checkpatch.pl warning which suggests that
kfree(NULL) is safe. But I think leaving code with if is nice
because it reflects the fact that kcalloc was under an if. So, I
have ignored checkpatch. If maintainer wants me to go for changing
things, I am fine with it too.
