[PATCH 5.4 100/309] nvmem: core: fix memory abort in cleanup path

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Feb 10 2020 - 08:22:31 EST


From: Bitan Biswas <bbiswas@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 16bb7abc4a6b9defffa294e4dc28383e62a1dbcf upstream.

nvmem_cell_info_to_nvmem_cell implementation has static
allocation of name. nvmem_add_cells_from_of() call may
return error and kfree name results in memory abort. Use
kstrdup_const() and kfree_const calls for name alloc and free.
