From cc2205a67dec5a700227a693fc113441e73e4641 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Miaohe Lin Date: Wed, 24 Feb 2021 12:06:50 -0800 Subject: mm/hugetlb: fix potential double free in hugetlb_register_node() error path In hugetlb_sysfs_add_hstate(), we would do kobject_put() on hstate_kobjs when failed to create sysfs group but forget to set hstate_kobjs to NULL. Then in hugetlb_register_node() error path, we may free it again via hugetlb_unregister_node().
