[PATCH v2 2/2] staging: vchiq_arm: Utilize devm_kzalloc() for allocation
From: Umang Jain
Date: Mon Oct 14 2024 - 02:13:36 EST
The struct drv_mgmt 'mgmt' is currently allocated dynamically using
kzalloc(). Unfortunately, it is subjected to memory leaks in the error
handling paths of the probe() function.
To address this issue, use device resource management
helper devm_kzalloc(), to ensure cleanup after the allocation.
