  https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/529548/ - cxl: Free virtual PHB when removing

  Andrew Donnellan - Sept. 10, 2015, 6:28 a.m.
  1)  Export pcibios_free_controller(), so it can be used by the cxl module to
  free virtual PHBs.

   1 file changed, 1 insertion(+)

  2) When adding a vPHB in cxl_pci_vphb_add(), we allocate a pci_controller
  struct using pcibios_alloc_controller(). However, we don't free it in
  cxl_pci_vphb_remove(), causing a leak.

  Call pcibios_free_controller() in cxl_pci_vphb_remove() to free the vPHB
  data structure correctly.
