commit757fed1d08upstream. This reverts commitdde3c6b72a. syzbot report a double-free bug. The following case can cause this bug. - mm/slab_common.c: create_cache(): if the __kmem_cache_create() fails, it does: out_free_cache: kmem_cache_free(kmem_cache, s); - but __kmem_cache_create() - at least for slub() - will have done sysfs_slab_add(s) -> sysfs_create_group() .. fails .. -> kobject_del(&s->kobj); .. which frees s ... We can't remove the kmem_cache_free() in create_cache(), because other error cases of __kmem_cache_create() do not free this. So, revert the commitdde3c6b72a("mm/slub: fix a memory leak in sysfs_slab_add()") to fix this.

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.
