mainline inclusion from mainline-v6.11-rc7 commit 284b75a3d83c7631586d98f6dede1d90f128f0db category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/IAQVZI CVE: NA Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=... -------------------------------- In ata_host_alloc(), if devres_alloc() fails to allocate the device host resource data pointer, the already allocated ata_host structure is not freed before returning from the function. This results in a potential memory leak. Call kfree(host) before jumping to the error handling path to ensure that the ata_host structure is properly freed if devres_alloc() fails.
