Subject: [PATCH v2] mm/memory_hotplug: Drop memory device reference after find_memory_block()
Date: Thu, 11 Apr 2019 13:09:55 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190411110955.1430-1-david@redhat.com> (raw)
Right now we are using find_memory_block() to get the node id for the
pfn range to online. We are missing to drop a reference to the memory
block device. While the device still gets unregistered via
device_unregister(), resulting in no user visible problem, the device is
never released via device_release(), resulting in a memory leak. Fix
that by properly using a put_device().
