Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.

In probe_gdrom(), the buffer pointed by 'gd.cd_info' is allocated through kzalloc() and is used to hold the information of the gdrom device. To register and unregister the device, the pointer 'gd.cd_info' is passed to the functions register_cdrom() and unregister_cdrom(), respectively. However, this buffer is not freed after it is used, which can cause a memory leak bug. This patch simply frees the buffer 'gd.cd_info' in exit_gdrom() to fix the above issue.
