PATCH v2 1/1 leds: ledtrig-tty: free allocated ttyname buffer on deactivate
The ttyname buffer for the ledtrig_tty_data struct is allocated in the sysfs ttyname_store() function. This buffer must be released on trigger deactivation. This was missing and is thus a memory leak.
While we are at it, the tty handler in the ledtrig_tty_data struct should also be returned in case of the trigger deactivation call.

I already provided that to v1, but my reply and the v2 crossed, so I'm forwarding my tag to this v2:
Best regards
