If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Brian Norris commit 778d226a1462572b51d6777cdb1d611543410cb4 upstream. This patch fixes two memory errors: 1. During a probe failure (in mtd_device_parse_register?) the command buffer would not be freed. 2. The command buffer's size is determined based on the 'fast_read' boolean, but the assignment of fast_read is made after this allocation. Thus, the buffer may be allocated "too small". To fix the first, just switch to the devres version of kzalloc. To fix the second, increase MAX_CMD_SIZE unconditionally. It's not worth saving a byte to fiddle around with the conditions here. This problem was reported by Yuhang Wang a while back.
