Subject: [PATCH] thermal/drivers/cpuidle_cooling: Fix use after error
Date: Fri, 19 Mar 2021 21:25:22 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210319202522.891061-1-daniel.lezcano@linaro.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <YFMpUDNGIiLOzr0/@mwanda>

When the function successfully finishes it logs an information about
the registration of the cooling device and use its name to build the
message. Unfortunately it was freed right before:

drivers/thermal/cpuidle_cooling.c:218 __cpuidle_cooling_register()
	warn: 'name' was already freed.

Fix this by freeing after the message happened.

Fixes: 6fd1b186d900 ("thermal/drivers/cpuidle_cooling: Use device name instead of auto-numbering")
