AI-suggested

A fix is available that explicitly frees the allocated consumers array to prevent the memory leak. Users should apply the updated Linux kernel versions that include this fix to remediate the issue.

Description

A memory leak vulnerability in the Linux kernel's power sequencing code for pcie-m2 was fixed. The function of_regulator_bulk_get_all() allocates an array that was not properly freed in the pwrseq-pcie-m2.c code, causing a leak. The fix adds an explicit kfree() call to release the allocated consumers array.
