[PATCH v2 3/7] dmaengine: idxd: fix memory leak in error handling path of idxd_setup_groups
From: Shuai Xue
Date: Sat Feb 15 2025 - 00:44:53 EST
Memory allocated for groups is not freed if an error occurs during
idxd_setup_groups(). To fix it, free the allocated memory in the reverse
order of allocation before exiting the function in case of an error.
Fixes: defe49f96012 ("dmaengine: idxd: fix group conf_dev lifetime")
