Subject: Re: [PATCH] Fix memory leak in the proto_register function
Please send networking patches to netdev@...r.kernel.org as well.
David,
Please apply.

If the slub allocator is used, kmem_cache_create() may merge two or more
kmem_cache's into one but the cache name pointer is not updated and
kmem_cache_name() is no longer guaranteed to return the pointer passed
to the former function. This patch stores the kmalloc'ed pointers in the
corresponding request_sock_ops and timewait_sock_ops structures.
