workqueue, lockdep: Fix a memory leak in wq->lock_name
The following commit: 669de8bda87b ("kernel/workqueue: Use dynamic lockdep keys for workqueues") introduced a memory leak as wq_free_lockdep() calls kfree(wq->lock_name), but wq_init_lockdep() does not point wq->lock_name to the newly allocated slab object. This can be reproduced by running LTP fallocate04 followed by oom01 tests: unreferenced object 0xc0000005876384d8 (size 64): comm "fallocate04", pid 26972, jiffies 4297139141 (age 40370.480s) hex dump (first 32 bytes): 28 77 71 5f 63 6f 6d 70 6c 65 74 69 6f 6e 29 65 (wq_completion)e 78 74 34 2d 72 73 76 2d 63 6f 6e 76 65 72 73 69 xt4-rsv-conversi backtrace: [<00000000cb452883>] kvasprintf+0x6c/0xe0 [<000000004654ddac>] kasprintf+0x34/0x60 [<000000001c68f311>] alloc_workqueue+0x1f8/0x6ac [<0000000003c2ad83>] ext4_fill_super+0x23d4/0x3c80 [ext4] [<0000000006610538>] mount_bdev+0x25c/0x290 [<00000000bcf955ec>] ext4_mount+0x28/0x50 [ext4] [<0000000016e08fd3>] legacy_get_tree+0x4c/0xb0 [<0000000042b6a5fc>] vfs_get_tree+0x6c/0x190 [<00000000268ab022>] do_mount+0xb9c/0x1100 [<00000000698e6898>] ksys_mount+0x158/0x180 [<0000000064e391fd>] sys_mount+0x20/0x30 [<00000000ba378f12>] system_call+0x5c/0x70 Signed-off-by: Qian Cai <cai@lca.pw> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Reviewed-by: Bart Van Assche <bvanassche@acm.org> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Andy Lutomirski <luto@kernel.org> Cc: Borislav Petkov <bp@alien8.de> Cc: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@linux.intel.com> Cc: H.
