Subject: [PATCH] media: usb: cx231xx-417: fix a memory leak bug
Date:   Sat, 17 Aug 2019 01:14:54 -0500
Message-Id: <1566022496-4425-1-git-send-email-wenwen@cs.uga.edu>
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

In cx231xx_load_firmware(), 'p_buffer' is allocated through vmalloc() to
hold the firmware. However, after the usage, it is not deallocated, leading
to a memory leak bug.
