[Qemu-devel] [PULL 28/33] hw/arm/realview.c: Fix memory leak in realview_init()

[Peter Maydell]

From: Nikita Belov <address@hidden>

Variable 'ram_lo' is allocated unconditionally, but used only in some cases.
When it is unused pointer will be lost at function exit, resulting in a
memory leak. Allocate memory for 'ram_lo' only if it is needed.

Valgrind output:
==16879== 240 bytes in 1 blocks are definitely lost in loss record 6,033 of 
7,018
==16879==    at 0x4C2AB80: malloc (in 
/usr/lib/valgrind/vgpreload_memcheck-amd64-linux.so)
