[PATCH v6 2/6] coresight: configfs: Update memory allocation / free for configfs elements

Mike Leach mike.leach at linaro.org
Wed May 10 23:53:26 PDT 2023


Previously, the objects backing the configfs directories and files were
created using devm managed memory on the coresight device.

Now we are adding configfs load/unload, configurations can be loaded
many times over the lifetime of the device, so it is more appropriate to
use normally allocated and freed memory.
