[PATCH 4.13 20/47] binder: free memory on error

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Fri Sep 08 2017 - 09:53:23 EST


4.13-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Christian Brauner <christian.brauner@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 22eb9476b5d80a393ac0ba235c42bccc90b82c76 upstream.

On binder_init() the devices string is duplicated and smashed into individual
device names which are passed along. However, the original duplicated string
wasn't freed in case binder_init() failed. Let's free it on error.
