Subject: [PATCH 5.8 008/118] firmware_loader: fix memory leak for paged buffer

From: Prateek Sood <prsood@...eaurora.org>

commit 4965b8cd1bc1ffb017e5c58e622da82b55e49414 upstream.

vfree() is being called on paged buffer allocated
using alloc_page() and mapped using vmap().

Freeing of pages in vfree() relies on nr_pages of
struct vm_struct. vmap() does not update nr_pages.
It can lead to memory leaks.

Fixes: ddaf29fd9bb6 ("firmware: Free temporary page table after vmapping")
