[PATCH] cxl/cdat: Free correct buffer on checksum error

From: Ira Weiny
Date: Thu Nov 16 2023 - 19:04:41 EST


The new 6.7-rc1 kernel now checks the checksum on CDAT data. While
using a branch of Fan's DCD qemu work (and specifying DCD devices), the
following splat was observed.

WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 1384 at drivers/base/devres.c:1064 devm_kfree+0x4f/0x60
...
RIP: 0010:devm_kfree+0x4f/0x60
...
? devm_kfree+0x4f/0x60
read_cdat_data+0x1a0/0x2a0 [cxl_core]
cxl_port_probe+0xdf/0x200 [cxl_port]
...

The issue in qemu is still unknown but the spat is a straight forward
bug in the CDAT checksum processing code. Use a CDAT buffer variable to
ensure the devm_free() works correctly on error.
