[bug report] powerpc/perf: Add nest IMC PMU support

[Dan Carpenter]

Hello Anju T Sudhakar,

The patch 885dcd709ba9: "powerpc/perf: Add nest IMC PMU support" from
Jul 19, 2017, leads to the following static checker warning:

	arch/powerpc/perf/imc-pmu.c:1393 init_imc_pmu()
	warn: 'pmu_ptr' was already freed.

arch/powerpc/perf/imc-pmu.c
  1317  int init_imc_pmu(struct device_node *parent, struct imc_pmu *pmu_ptr, int pmu_idx)
  1318  {
  1319          int ret;
  1320  
  1321          ret = imc_mem_init(pmu_ptr, parent, pmu_idx);
  1322          if (ret) {
  1323                  imc_common_mem_free(pmu_ptr);
  1324                  return ret;
  1325          }

Change this to:

		if (ret)
			goto err_free_mpu_ptr;

Or something instead of a direct return.  That's more normal kernel
style.

  1326  
  1327          switch (pmu_ptr->domain) {
  1328          case IMC_DOMAIN_NEST:
  1329                  /*

These direct returns don't look correct...

  1359                  }
  1360  
  1361                  break;
  1362          case IMC_DOMAIN_THREAD:
  1363                  ret = thread_imc_cpu_init();
  1364                  if (ret) {
  1365                          cleanup_all_thread_imc_memory();
  1366                          return ret;
  1367                  }
  1368  
  1369                  break;
  1370          default:
  1371                  return  -1;     /* Unknown domain */

This one certainly looks like a memory leak.  Plus -1 is -EPERM which is
probably not the correct error code.


  1372          }
  1373  
  1374          ret = update_events_in_group(parent, pmu_ptr);

  1388  
  1389          return 0;
  1390  
  1391  err_free:
  1392          imc_common_mem_free(pmu_ptr);
  1393          imc_common_cpuhp_mem_free(pmu_ptr);
                                          ^^^^^^^
This is a use after free, it should be in the reverse order.

err_free_cpuhp:
	imc_common_cpuhp_mem_free(pmu_ptr);
err_free_pmu_ptr:
	imc_common_mem_free(pmu_ptr);

  1394          return ret;
  1395  }
