Subject: [042/103] x86, irq: Plug memory leak in sparse irq

2.6.35-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@...utronix.de>

commit 1cf180c94e9166cda083ff65333883ab3648e852 upstream.

free_irq_cfg() is not freeing the cpumask_vars in irq_cfg. Fixing this
triggers a use after free caused by the fact that copying struct
irq_cfg is done with memcpy, which copies the pointer not the cpumask.

Fix both places.
