At this point, ehv_pic has been allocated but not stored anywhere, so it
should be freed before leaving the function.

A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as
follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

// &lt;smpl&gt;
@exists@
local idexpression x;
statement S,S1;
expression E;
identifier fl;
expression *ptr != NULL;
@@

x = \(kmalloc\|kzalloc\|kcalloc\)(...);
...
if (x == NULL) S
&lt;... when != x
     when != if (...) { &lt;+...kfree(x)...+&gt; }
     when any
     when != true x == NULL
x-&gt;fl
...&gt;
(
if (x == NULL) S1
|
if (...) { ... when != x
               when forall
(
 return \(0\|&lt;+...x...+&gt;\|ptr\);
|
* return ...;
)
}
)
// &lt;/smpl&gt;

The Freescale ePAPR reference hypervisor provides interrupt controller
services via a hypercall interface, instead of emulating the MPIC
controller.  This is called the VMPIC.

The ePAPR "virtual interrupt controller" provides interrupt controller
services for external interrupts.  External interrupts received by a
partition can come from two sources:

  - Hardware interrupts - hardware interrupts come from external
    interrupt lines or on-chip I/O devices.
  - Virtual interrupts - virtual interrupts are generated by the hypervisor
    as part of some hypervisor service or hypervisor-created virtual device.

Both types of interrupts are processed using the same programming model and
same set of hypercalls.
