Subject: Re: [Linux-kernel-mentees][PATCH] bluetooth: hci_h5: close serdev
 device and free hu in h5_close

Hi Anant,

> When h5_close() gets called, the memory allocated for the hu gets 
> freed only if hu->serdev doesn't exist. This leads to a memory leak.
> So when h5_close() is requested, close the serdev device instance and
> free the memory allocated to the hu entirely instead.
