[PATCH AUTOSEL 5.10 29/93] tty: serial: 8250: serial_cs: Fix a memory leak in error handling path

From: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>
Date: 2021-07-10 02:32:40
Also in: linux-serial, lkml
Subsystem: 8250/16?50 (and clone uarts) serial driver, the rest, tty layer and serial drivers · Maintainers: Greg Kroah-Hartman, Linus Torvalds, Jiri Slaby

From: Christophe JAILLET <redacted>

[ Upstream commit fad92b11047a748c996ebd6cfb164a63814eeb2e ]

In the probe function, if the final 'serial_config()' fails, 'info' is
leaking.

Add a resource handling path to free this memory.
