[PATCH v2 1/1] test_firmware: fix the memory leaks with the reqs buffer

From: Mirsad Todorovac
Date: Wed Aug 02 2023 - 01:35:35 EST


[ commit be37bed754ed90b2655382f93f9724b3c1aae847 upstream ]

Dan Carpenter spotted that test_fw_config->reqs will be leaked if
trigger_batched_requests_store() is called two or more times.
The same appears with trigger_batched_requests_async_store().

This bug wasn't triggered by the tests, but observed by Dan's visual
inspection of the code.

The recommended workaround was to return -EBUSY if test_fw_config->reqs
is already allocated.

v1 -> v2:
removed the Reviewed-by: and Acked-by tags, as this is a slightly different patch and
those need to be reacquired
