Subject: [PATCH 5.15 421/567] scsi: snic: Fix memory leak with using debugfs_lookup()
Date: Tue,  7 Mar 2023 18:02:37 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230307165924.126363478@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230307165905.838066027@linuxfoundation.org>

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

[ Upstream commit ad0e4e2fab928477f74d742e6e77d79245d3d3e7 ]

When calling debugfs_lookup() the result must have dput() called on it,
otherwise the memory will leak over time.  To make things simpler, just
call debugfs_lookup_and_remove() instead which handles all of the logic at
once.
