PATCH 1/1 cpufreq: exynos: Fix for memory leak in case SoC name does not match

From: Shailendra Verma <[email protected]>

During probe free the memory allocated to "exynos_info" in case of unknown SoC type.

[k.kozlowski: Rebased the patch around if(of_machine_is_compatible)]

Hi Rafael and Viresh,

Since this is a fix to prevent memory leak, it would be better if this could be sent to linus during -rc via cpufreq tree.

Thanks,
Kukjin

Hi Rafael and Viresh,

I'm not planning more pull requests for 4.2 and this one doesn't seem to be a good enough reason for a pull request of its own, though.

Of course, if there are more urgent fixes, I can push it along with them, but there are none so far.

Thanks,
Rafael

The cpufreq driver will be removed completely in v4.3 or v4.4 with patchset adding cpufreq-dt support for Exynos 4x12. This means that this patch makes sense only for 4.2 and as a stable backport (but it was not marked as such).

Anyone thinks that the patch will be worth stable back-porting?

Doesn't look worth enough to me..

Since I have one more ACPI fix for 4.2, I've applied this one and will push it to Linus next week.
