Christophe JAILLET 33ce32587c drm/nouveau: Fix a potential theorical leak in nouveau_get_backlight_name()
[ Upstream commit ab244be47a8f111bc82496a8a20c907236e37f95 ]

If successful ida_simple_get() calls are not undone when needed, some
additional memory may be allocated and wasted.

Here, an ID between 0 and MAX_INT is required. If this ID is >=100, it is
not taken into account and is wasted. It should be released.

Instead of calling ida_simple_remove(), take advantage of the 'max'
parameter to require the ID not to be too big. Should it be too big, it
is not allocated and don't need to be freed.

While at it, use ida_alloc_xxx()/ida_free() instead to
ida_simple_get()/ida_simple_remove().
The latter is deprecated and more verbose.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
