[ Upstream commit 54c7a8916a887f357088f99e9c3a7720cd57d2c8 ] Patch series "initramfs tidyups". I've spent some time chasing down behavior in initramfs and found plenty of opportunity to improve the code. A first stab on that is contained in this series. This patch (of 7): We free the initrd memory for all successful or error cases except for the case where opening /initrd.image fails, which looks like an oversight. Steven said: : This also changes the behaviour when CONFIG_INITRAMFS_FORCE is enabled : - specifically it means that the initrd is freed (previously it was : ignored and never freed). But that seems like reasonable behaviour and : the previous behaviour looks like another oversight.
