[PATCH 5.2 50/85] kernel/module: Fix mem leak in module_add_modinfo_attrs

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Wed Sep 18 2019 - 02:26:16 EST


From: YueHaibing <yuehaibing@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit bc6f2a757d525e001268c3658bd88822e768f8db upstream.

In module_add_modinfo_attrs if sysfs_create_file
fails, we forget to free allocated modinfo_attrs
and roll back the sysfs files.

Fixes: 03e88ae1b13d ("[PATCH] fix module sysfs files reference counting")
