Subject: [PATCH] powerpc/perf/hv-24x7: Use kmem_cache_free
Date: Tue, 22 Jul 2014 23:40:19 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20140722181019.GA3222@himangi-Dell> (raw)
Free memory allocated using kmem_cache_zalloc using kmem_cache_free
rather than kfree.
The Coccinelle semantic patch that makes this change is as follows:
// <smpl>
@@
expression x,E,c;
@@
x = \(kmem_cache_alloc\|kmem_cache_zalloc\|kmem_cache_alloc_node\)(c,...)
... when != x = E
when != &x
?-kfree(x)
+kmem_cache_free(c,x)
// </smpl>
