From c94afc46cae7ad41b2ad6a99368147879f4b0e56 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Miaohe Lin linmiaohe@huawei.com Date: Thu, 17 Feb 2022 22:53:27 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] memblock: use kfree() to release kmalloced memblock regions
memblock.{reserved,memory}.regions may be allocated using kmalloc() in memblock_double_array(). Use kfree() to release these kmalloced regions indicated by memblock_{reserved,memory}_in_slab.
