Subject: [PATCH] gpio: fix memory leak in gpiod_request_commit()
Date: Sun, 18 Feb 2024 18:48:53 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240218174853.6492-1-brgl@bgdev.pl> (raw)

From: Bartosz Golaszewski <bartosz.golaszewski@linaro.org>

We now copy the label string directly in desc_set_label() so it must not
be done a second time in gpiod_request_commit().

Fixes: 1f2bcb8c8ccd ("gpio: protect the descriptor label with SRCU")
Reported-by: Xiaolei Wang <xiaolei.wang@windriver.com>
Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240217135255.1128716-1-xiaolei.wang@windriver.com/T/
