Description Daniel Marjamäki 2008-08-17 10:11:29 UTC

I believe this is a memory leak..

		info = kzalloc(sizeof(*info), GFP_KERNEL);
		if (!info)
			return;

#ifdef CONFIG_PPC_MERGE
		if (check_legacy_ioport(ipmi_defaults[i].port))
			continue;
#endif

The memory leak happens if execution reaches the continue line.
