From 4c4ac9a48ac512c6b5a6cca06cfad2ad96e8caaa Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christophe Jaillet Date: Mon, 13 Jul 2015 11:32:43 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] parisc: mm: Fix a memory leak related to pmd not attached to the pgd Commit 0e0da48dee8d ("parisc: mm: don't count preallocated pmds") introduced a memory leak. After this commit, the 'return' statement in pmd_free is executed in all cases. Even for pmd that are not attached to the pgd. So 'free_pages' can never be called anymore, leading to a memory leak.
