Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> octeon_ep: Fix memory leak in octep_device_setup()<br /> <br /> In octep_device_setup(), if octep_ctrl_net_init() fails, the function<br /> returns directly without unmapping the mapped resources and freeing the<br /> allocated configuration memory.<br /> <br /> Fix this by jumping to the unsupported_dev label, which performs the<br /> necessary cleanup. This aligns with the error handling logic of other<br /> paths in this function.<br /> <br /> Compile tested only. Issue found using a prototype static analysis tool<br /> and code review.
