[PATCH 3/4] nvmem: core: Fix memory leak in nvmem_cell_write

From: Srinivas Kandagatla
Date: Wed Sep 30 2015 - 08:36:26 EST


From: Axel Lin <axel.lin@xxxxxxxxxx>

A tmp buffer is allocated if cell->bit_offset || cell->nbits.
So the tmp buffer needs to be freed at the same condition to avoid leak.
