[ Upstream commit 2899872b627e99b7586fe3b6c9f861da1b4d5072 ]

As detected by kmemleak running on i.MX6ULL board:

nreferenced object 0xd8366600 (size 64):
  comm "swapper/0", pid 1, jiffies 4294937370 (age 933.220s)

Root cause is that map->debugfs_name is allocated using kasprintf
and then the pointer is lost by assigning it other memory address.
