In the process of moving the debug counters sysfs entries, the commit
mentioned below eliminated the cm_infiniband sysfs directory.
This sysfs directory was tied to the cm_port object allocated in procedure
cm_add_one().
Before the commit below, this cm_port object was freed via a call to
kobject_put(port->kobj) in procedure cm_remove_port_fs().
Since port no longer uses its kobj, kobject_put(port->kobj) was eliminated.
This, however, meant that kfree was never called for the cm_port buffers.
Fix this by adding explicit kfree(port) calls to functions cm_add_one()
and cm_remove_one().
Note: the kfree call in the first chunk below (in the cm_add_one error
flow) fixes an old, undetected memory leak.

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.
