Date: Wed, 23 Feb 2022 17:47:18 +0200 From: Andy Shevchenko <andriy.shevchenko@...ux.intel.com> To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Cc: Miguel Ojeda <ojeda@...nel.org>, Andy Shevchenko <andriy.shevchenko@...ux.intel.com>, Lars Poeschel <poeschel@...onage.de> Subject: [PATCH v1 3/3] auxdisplay: lcd2s: Use proper API to free the instance of charlcd object While it might work, the current approach is fragile in a few ways: - whenever members in the structure are shuffled, the pointer will be wrong - the resource freeing may include more than covered by kfree() Fix this by using charlcd_free() call instead of kfree().
