Subject: [PATCH] saa7146 memory leakage in pagetable-handling
Date: Mon, 28 Sep 2009 12:49:06 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4AC094A2.4070806@web.de> (raw)

It is necessary to release the allocated pgtables in buffer_release. It 
is now done only in buffer_prepare. This will not work if a new 
videobuf_buffer has been requested since the last call, as the former 
pointers are lost.
