Revision 4c4ac9a48ac512c6b5a6cca06cfad2ad96e8caaa authored by Christophe Jaillet on 13 July 2015, 09:32:43 UTC, committed by Helge Deller on 19 July 2015, 06:56:14 UTC
Commit 0e0da48dee8d ("parisc: mm: don't count preallocated pmds")
introduced a memory leak.

After this commit, the 'return' statement in pmd_free is executed in all
cases. Even for pmd that are not attached to the pgd.  So 'free_pages'
can never be called anymore, leading to a memory leak.
