Shu Wang 213c5a459a sched/topology: Fix memory leak in __sdt_alloc()
Found this issue by kmemleak: the 'sg' and 'sgc' pointers from
__sdt_alloc() might be leaked as each domain holds many groups' ref,
but in destroy_sched_domain(), it only declined the first group ref.

Onlining and offlining a CPU can trigger this leak, and cause OOM.

Reproducer for my 6 CPUs machine:

  while true
  do
      echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu5/online;
      echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu5/online;
  done

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
