From 31be8309532a6743f301cb2e83bd12ca07988b09 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: OGAWA Hirofumi Date: Thu, 16 Nov 2006 01:19:29 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] Fix strange size check in __get_vm_area_node() Recently, __get_vm_area_node() was changed like following if (unlikely(!area)) return NULL; - if (unlikely(!size)) { - kfree (area); + if (unlikely(!size)) return NULL; - } It is leaking `area', also original code seems strange already. Probably, we wanted to do this patch.
