Subject: [PATCH v7 4/4] alloc_tag: release the reservation when populate fails
Date: Wed,  2 Sep 2026 16:18:02 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260902081802.146145-5-hao.ge@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260902081802.146145-1-hao.ge@linux.dev>

vm_module_tags_populate() can fail after the reservation was stored
in the maple tree, and the error return leaks the entry, since a
failed load never unloads the module. Release it.

Fixes: 0f9b685626da ("alloc_tag: populate memory for module tags as needed")
Reported-by: Sashiko <sashiko-bot@kernel.org>
Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org
