On linus tree, while investigating kmemleak issues in drm :

This fixes above memory leak in drm because it was allocating again on
dev->devname without freeing previous instance and more memory related
issues, hope this will be helpful:

Thanks for looking into this (I haven't tried the patch yet but it seems
that you found the cause of the leak).

In case you have time, I reported this as well and another in the drm
code - http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/7/9/110 - which happens when a graphics
application exits.

drm_setunique() is pretty crappy. It has a number of places where it
does some resource freeing and then a `return' and other places where
it does the usual `goto out_free' thing.

I do think that converting this function to the usual
single-return-statement model would simplify it and would reduce the
chances of additional resource leaks being added in the future.

The basic pattern (which is applicable here) is:

foo()
{
if (!simple test)
return -EFOO;
if (!simple_test_2)
return -EBAR;

foo = allocate_something();

if (test3)
goto fail_foo;

bar = allocate_something_else();

if (test4)
goto fail_bar;

...

return 0; /* success */

fail_bar:
deallocate(bar);
fail_foo:
deallocate(foo);

return err;
}

kfree(NULL) is legal and will simplify and shorten the code here.

Generally I try to avoid doing things to this function as it has great
potential for breaking the X server badly, this definitely won't be a
fix I'd put in for this release.

I'll get some time to clean it up for drm-next.
