Subject: [for-next][PATCH 2/3] tracing: Fix kmemleak in instance_rmdir
Date: Thu, 20 Jul 2017 21:24:19 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170721012439.741279629@goodmis.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20170721012417.401311087@goodmis.org

[-- Attachment #1: 0002-tracing-Fix-kmemleak-in-instance_rmdir.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1647 bytes --]

From: Chunyu Hu <chuhu@redhat.com>

Hit the kmemleak when executing instance_rmdir, it forgot releasing
mem of tracing_cpumask. With this fix, the warn does not appear any
more.

unreferenced object 0xffff93a8dfaa7c18 (size 8):
  comm "mkdir", pid 1436, jiffies 4294763622 (age 9134.308s)
  hex dump (first 8 bytes):
    ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff                          ........
