[PATCH v2] of: unittest: fix memory leak in attach_node_and_children
From: Erhard Furtner
Date: Mon Nov 25 2019 - 20:56:31 EST
In attach_node_and_children memory is allocated for full_name via
kasprintf. If the condition of the 1st if is not met the function
returns early without freeing the memory. Add a kfree() to fix that.
This has been detected with kmemleak:

It looks like the leak was introduced by this commit:
