From: Ralph Campbell <rcampb...@nvidia.com> The helper function hmm_vma_fault() calls hmm_range_register() but is missing a call to hmm_range_unregister() in one of the error paths. This leads to a reference count leak and ultimately a memory leak on struct hmm.
Always call hmm_range_unregister() if hmm_range_register() succeeded.
