[PATCH] video/fbdev: Fix a double free in hvfb_probe

From: Lv Yunlong <hidden>
Date: 2021-03-23 07:35:01
Also in: dri-devel, linux-hyperv, lkml
Subsystem: framebuffer layer, the rest · Maintainers: Helge Deller, Linus Torvalds

In function hvfb_probe in hyperv_fb.c, it calls hvfb_getmem(hdev, info)
and return err when info->apertures is freed.

In the error1 label of hvfb_probe, info->apertures will be freed twice
by framebuffer_release(info).

My patch sets info->apertures to NULL after it was freed to avoid
double free.
