H A Dvfio_ap_drv.cdiff 8f8cf767589f2131ae5d40f3758429095c701c84 Mon Mar 20 16:04:47 CET 2023 Tony Krowiak <akrowiak@linux.ibm.com> s390/vfio-ap: fix memory leak in vfio_ap device driver

The device release callback function invoked to release the matrix device
uses the dev_get_drvdata(device *dev) function to retrieve the
pointer to the vfio_matrix_dev object in order to free its storage. The
problem is, this object is not stored as drvdata with the device; since the
kfree function will accept a NULL pointer, the memory for the
vfio_matrix_dev object is never freed.

Since the device being released is contained within the vfio_matrix_dev
object, the container_of macro will be used to retrieve its pointer.
