Subject: [PATCH] auxdisplay: hd44780: Fix potential memory leak in hd44780_remove()
Git-commit: ddf75a86aba2cfb7ec4497e8692b60c8c8fe0ee7
Patch-mainline: v6.3-rc1
References: git-fixes

hd44780_probe() allocates a memory chunk for hd with kzalloc() and
makes "lcd->drvdata->hd44780" point to it. When we call hd44780_remove(),
we should release all relevant memory and resource. But "lcd->drvdata
->hd44780" is not released, which will lead to a memory leak.

We should release the "lcd->drvdata->hd44780" in hd44780_remove() to fix
the memory leak bug.
