[PATCH] locktorture: Fix potential memory leak with rw lock test
From: Yang Shi
Date: Thu Nov 10 2016 - 16:41:42 EST
When running locktorture module with the below commands with kmemleak enabled:
$ modprobe locktorture torture_type=rw_lock_irq
$ rmmod locktorture
The below kmemleak got caught:
root@10:~# echo scan > /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak
[ 323.197029] kmemleak: 2 new suspected memory leaks (see /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak)

It is because cxt.lwsa and cxt.lrsa don't get freed in module_exit, so free
them in lock_torture_cleanup() and free writer_tasks if reader_tasks is
failed at memory allocation.
