In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hwmon: (xgene) Fix ioremap and memremap leak
Smatch reports:
drivers/hwmon/xgene-hwmon.c:757 xgene_hwmon_probe() warn:
'ctx->pcc_comm_addr' from ioremap() not released on line: 757.
This is because in drivers/hwmon/xgene-hwmon.c:701 xgene_hwmon_probe(),
ioremap and memremap is not released, which may cause a leak.
To fix this, ioremap and memremap is modified to devm_ioremap and
devm_memremap.
