[PATCH] ASoC: SOF: topology: Fix memory leak of scontrol->name

Peter Ujfalusi peter.ujfalusi at linux.intel.com
Thu Mar 31 13:48:45 CEST 2022


The scontrol->name is allocated with kstrdup, it must be freed before the
scontrol is freed to avoid leaking memory.

The constant leaking happens via sof_widget_unload() path on every module
removal.
