Subject: [PATCH] kernel/printk/index.c: fix memory leak with using
debugfs_lookup()
References: bsc#1012628
Patch-mainline: 6.2.5
Git-commit: 55bf243c514553e907efcf2bda92ba090eca8c64
[ Upstream commit 55bf243c514553e907efcf2bda92ba090eca8c64 ]
When calling debugfs_lookup() the result must have dput() called on it,
otherwise the memory will leak over time. To make things simpler, just
call debugfs_lookup_and_remove() instead which handles all of the logic
at once.
