Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] ima: Free IMA measurement buffer on error
Date:   Thu,  4 Feb 2021 09:49:50 -0800
Message-Id: <20210204174951.25771-1-nramas@linux.microsoft.com>

IMA allocates kernel virtual memory to carry forward the measurement
list, from the current kernel to the next kernel on kexec system call,
in ima_add_kexec_buffer() function.  In error code paths this memory
is not freed resulting in memory leak.

Free the memory allocated for the IMA measurement list in
the error code paths in ima_add_kexec_buffer() function.
