Subject: [PATCH] mm/shrinker_debug: Fix possible memory leak in shrinker_debugfs_rename function.
Date: Wed,  5 Mar 2025 10:01:23 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250305020123.605496-1-liuye@kylinos.cn> (raw)

After calling debugfs_change_name function, the return value should be
checked and the old name restored. If debugfs_change_name fails, the new
name memory should be freed.
