From 7b768f07dce463a054c9dd84862d15ccc3d2b712 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Pallipadi, Venkatesh" Date: Fri, 19 Jun 2009 17:14:59 -0700 Subject: ACPI: pdc init related memory leak with physical CPU hotplug arch_acpi_processor_cleanup_pdc() in x86 and ia64 results in memory allocated for _PDC objects that is never freed and will cause memory leak in case of physical CPU remove and add. Patch fixes the memory leak by freeing the objects soon after _PDC is evaluated.
