Subject: [PATCH] ACPI: custom_method: fix memory leaks
Git-commit: 03d1571d9513369c17e6848476763ebbd10ec2cb
Patch-mainline: v5.4-rc1
References: bsc#1051510

In cm_write(), 'buf' is allocated through kzalloc(). In the following
execution, if an error occurs, 'buf' is not deallocated, leading to memory
leaks. To fix this issue, free 'buf' before returning the error.
