Subject: [GIT PULL] EDAC urgent for 5.6

Hi Linus,

please pull two EDAC fixes for 5.6. Doing only signed tags from now on, btw.

Thx.

  EDAC/sysfs: Remove csrow objects on errors (2020-02-13 13:29:41 +0100)

----------------------------------------------------------------
Two fixes for use-after-free and memory leaking in the EDAC core, by
Robert Richter.

Debug options like DEBUG_TEST_DRIVER_REMOVE, KASAN and DEBUG_KMEMLEAK
unearthed issues with the lifespan of memory allocated by the EDAC
memory controller descriptor due to misdesigned memory freeing, done
partially by the EDAC core *and* the driver core, which is problematic
to say the least.

These two are minimal fixes to take care of stable - a proper rework is
following which cleans up that mess properly.

      EDAC/sysfs: Remove csrow objects on errors
