[PATCH 2/2] of: overlay: fix target_path memory leak
From: Vincent Whitchurch
Date: Mon Nov 18 2019 - 08:28:17 EST
target_path is used as a temporary buffer in dup_and_fixup_symbol_prop()
and should be freed even in the success path.
This was detected by kmemleak.
unreferenced object 0x8598f6c0 (size 64):
backtrace:
