driver/base/node: remove unnecessary kfree of node struct from unregister_one_node Commit 92d585ef067d ("numa: fix NULL pointer access and memory leak in unregister_one_node()") added kfree() of node struct in unregister_one_node(). But node struct is freed by node_device_release() which is called in unregister_node(). So by adding the kfree(), node struct is freed two times. While hot removing memory, the commit leads the following BUG_ON(): kernel BUG at mm/slub.c:3346! invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP [...] Call Trace: [...] unregister_one_node [...] try_offline_node [...] remove_memory [...] acpi_memory_device_remove [...] acpi_bus_trim [...] acpi_bus_trim [...] acpi_device_hotplug [...] acpi_hotplug_work_fn [...] process_one_work [...] worker_thread [...] ? rescuer_thread [...] kthread [...] ? kthread_create_on_node [...] ret_from_fork [...] ? kthread_create_on_node This patch removes unnecessary kfree() from unregister_one_node().
