ACPI: Fix memory leak in acpi_bind_one()
Memory is allocated with kzalloc() and assigned to 'physical_node'. Then 'physical_node->node_id' is initialized with a call to 'find_first_zero_bit()', if that results in a value greater than ACPI_MAX_PHYSICAL_NODE we'll end up jumping to the 'err:' label and there leave the function and let 'physical_node' go out of scope and leak the memory we allocated. This patch fixes the leak by simply freeing the unused/unneeded memory pointed to by 'physical_node' just before we jump to 'err:'. [rjw: The problem has been introduced by commit 1033f90 (ACPI: Allow ACPI binding with USB-3.0 hub), which is new in 3.7-rc.] Signed-off-by: Jesper Juhl <jj@chaosbits.net> Reviewed-by: Toshi Kani <toshi.kani@hp.com> Reviewed-by: Yasuaki Ishimatsu <isimatu.yasuaki@jp.fujitsu.com> Acked-by: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
