    Subject[PATCH 4.13 089/110] irq/generic-chip: Dont replace domains name
    Date
    4.13-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

    ------------------

    From: Jeffy Chen <jeffy.chen@rock-chips.com>

    commit 72364d320644c12948786962673772f271039a4a upstream.

    When generic irq chips are allocated for an irq domain the domain name is
    set to the irq chip name. That was done to have named domains before the
    recent changes which enforce domain naming were done.

    Since then the overwrite causes a memory leak when the domain name is
    dynamically allocated and even worse it would cause the domain free code to
    free the wrong name pointer, which might point to a constant.

    Remove the name assignment to prevent this.

    Fixes: d59f6617eef0 ("genirq: Allow fwnode to carry name information only")
