Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
i3c: dw: Fix memory leak in dw_i3c_master_i2c_xfers()<br />
<br />
The dw_i3c_master_i2c_xfers() function allocates memory for the xfer<br />
structure using dw_i3c_master_alloc_xfer(). If pm_runtime_resume_and_get()<br />
fails, the function returns without freeing the allocated xfer, resulting<br />
in a memory leak.<br />
<br />
Add a dw_i3c_master_free_xfer() call to the error path to ensure the<br />
allocated memory is properly freed.<br />
<br />
Compile tested only. Issue found using a prototype static analysis tool<br />
and code review.
