[PATCH] blkcg:fixes memory leaks in blkg_conf_prep()

From: Wu Bo
Date: Fri May 15 2020 - 08:10:38 EST


blkg_conf_prep():

new_blkg = blkg_alloc(pos, q, GFP_KERNEL);
...
blkg = blkg_lookup_check(pos, pol, q);
if (IS_ERR(blkg)) {
ret = PTR_ERR(blkg);
goto fail_unlock;
}
...


if calling blkg_lookup_check() failed, at the IS_ERR block,
the new_blkg should be free before goto lable fail_unlock
in blkg_conf_prep() function.
