In line 153 (#1), cpufreq_cpu_get() increments the kobject reference
counter of the policy it returned on success. According to the
document, the policy returned by cpufreq_cpu_get() has to be
released with the help of cpufreq_cpu_put() to balance its kobject
reference counter properly. Forgetting the cpufreq_cpu_put()
operation will result in reference leak.
We can fix it by calling cpufreq_cpu_put() before the function
returns (#2, #3 and #4).
147 static int cpuhp_dtpm_cpu_offline(unsigned int cpu)
148 {
153 policy = cpufreq_cpu_get(cpu);
// #1: reference increment
155 if (!policy)
156 return 0;
158 pd = em_cpu_get(cpu);
159 if (!pd)
160 return -EINVAL; // #2: missing reference decrement
166 if (cpumask_weight(policy->cpus) != 1)
167 return 0; // #3: missing reference decrement
174 return 0; // #4: missing reference decrement
175 }
