[PATCH] binder: fix memory leak of spamming work
From: Carlos Llamas
Date: Fri Sep 22 2023 - 00:42:50 EST
A transaction complete work is allocated and queued for each
transaction. Under certain conditions the work->type might be marked as
BINDER_WORK_TRANSACTION_ONEWAY_SPAM_SUSPECT to notify userspace about
potential spamming threads.
However, this work->type is not being handled in binder_release_work()
so it will leak during a clean up. This was reported by syzkaller with
the following kmemleak dump:
BUG: memory leak
unreferenced object 0xffff88810e2d6de0 (size 32):
comm "syz-executor338", pid 5046, jiffies 4294968230 (age 13.590s)
hex dump (first 32 bytes):

Fix the leak by kfreeing this work in binder_release_work().
