drivers/video/gbefb.c: eliminate memory leak
This code is preceded by a call to framebuffer_alloc, which allocates memory, so this memory should be freed before leaving the function in an error case. out_release_framebuffer just frees the frame buffer and returns. A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @r exists@ local idexpression x; expression E; identifier f1; iterator I; @@ x = framebuffer_alloc(...); <... when != x when != true (x == NULL || ...) when != if (...) { <+...x...+> } when != I (...) { <+...x...+> } ( x == NULL | x == E | x->f1 ) ...> * return ...; // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> Cc: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org> Cc: Arnaud Patard <arnaud.patard@rtp-net.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
