4.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org>
commit bac6f6cda206ad7cbe0c73c35e494377ce9c4749 upstream.
As reported by nixiaoming, with some minor clarifications:
1) memory leak in ramoops_register_dummy(): dummy_data = kzalloc(sizeof(*dummy_data), GFP_KERNEL); but no kfree() if platform_device_register_data() fails.
2) memory leak in ramoops_init(): Missing platform_device_unregister(dummy) and kfree(dummy_data) if platform_driver_register(&ramoops_driver) fails.
I've clarified the purpose of ramoops_register_dummy(), and added a common cleanup routine for all three failure paths to call.
