Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
EDAC/highbank: Fix memory leak in highbank_mc_probe()
When devres_open_group() fails, it returns -ENOMEM without freeing memory
allocated by edac_mc_alloc().
Call edac_mc_free() on the error handling path to avoid a memory leak.
[ bp: Massage commit message. ]
