Subject: [PATCH RESEND] memcg: Free spare array to avoid memory leak
Date: Thu, 19 Apr 2012 16:54:50 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1334825690-9065-1-git-send-email-handai.szj@taobao.com> (raw)
From: Sha Zhengju <handai.szj@taobao.com>
When the last event is unregistered, there is no need to keep the spare
array anymore. So free it to avoid memory leak.
