From 7295a996fdab7bf83dc3d4078fa8b139b8e0a1bf Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Armin Wolf Date: Sat, 5 Aug 2023 07:36:10 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] platform/x86: dell-sysman: Fix reference leak If a duplicate attribute is found using kset_find_obj(), a reference to that attribute is returned. This means that we need to dispose it accordingly. Use kobject_put() to dispose the duplicate attribute in such a case. Compile-tested only.
