In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

RISC-V: kexec: Fix memory leak of fdt buffer

This is reported by kmemleak detector:

In elf_kexec_load(), a buffer is allocated via kvmalloc() to store fdt.
While it's not freed back to system when kexec kernel is reloaded or
unloaded.  Then memory leak is caused.  Fix it by introducing riscv
specific function arch_kimage_file_post_load_cleanup(), and freeing the
buffer there.
