Dear SYSTEM CONTROL & POWER/MANAGEMENT INTERFACE (SCPI/SCMI) Message
Protocol drivers maintainers,

I flashed a v6.13-rc3 kernel onto a Rock5B board and noticed the
following output in my terminal:

[  687.694465] kmemleak: 4 new suspected memory leaks (see /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak)

It seems that there is a memory leak for devices created with
scmi_device_create.

This was with a kernel running v6.13-rc3, but as far as I can tell, no
relevant changes have landed since v6.13-rc3. My tree *does* include
commit 295416091e44 ("firmware: arm_scmi: Fix slab-use-after-free in
scmi_bus_notifier()"). I've only seen this kmemleak report once, so it's
not happening consistently.

See below for the full kmemleak report.

Alice
