Subject: [PATCH] memcg: Free spare array to avoid memory leak
Date: Tue,  6 Mar 2012 20:13:24 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1331036004-7550-1-git-send-email-handai.szj@taobao.com> (raw)

From: Sha Zhengju <handai.szj@taobao.com>

When the last event is unregistered, there is no need to keep the spare
array anymore. So free it to avoid memory leak.
