Syzbot reported memory leak in SocketCAN driver for Microchip CAN BUS
Analyzer Tool. The problem was in unfreed usb_coherent.
In mcba_usb_start() 20 coherent buffers are allocated and there is
nothing, that frees them:
1) In callback function the urb is resubmitted and that's all
2) In disconnect function urbs are simply killed, but URB_FREE_BUFFER
is not set (see mcba_usb_start) and this flag cannot be used with
coherent buffers.
Fail log:
| [ 1354.053291][ T8413] mcba_usb 1-1:0.0 can0: device disconnected
| [ 1367.059384][ T8420] kmemleak: 20 new suspected memory leaks (see /sys/kernel/debug/kmem)
So, all allocated buffers should be freed with usb_free_coherent()
explicitly
NOTE:
The same pattern for allocating and freeing coherent buffers
is used in drivers/net/can/usb/kvaser_usb/kvaser_usb_core.c

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.
