kunit_kfree() exists to clean up allocations from kunit_kmalloc() and friends early instead of waiting for this to happen automatically at the end of the test. But it can be used on *anything* registered with the kunit resource API. E.g. the last 2 statements are equivalent: struct kunit_resource *res = something(); kfree(res->data); kunit_put_resource(res); The problem is that there could be multiple resources that point to the same `data`. E.g. you can have a named resource acting as a pseudo-global variable in a test. If you point it to data allocated with kunit_kmalloc(), then calling `kunit_kfree(ptr)` has the chance to delete either the named resource or to kfree `ptr`. Which one it does depends on the order the resources are registered as kunit_kfree() will delete resources in LIFO order. So this patch restricts kunit_kfree() to only working on resources created by kunit_kmalloc(). Calling it is therefore guaranteed to free the memory, not do anything else. Note: kunit_resource_instance_match() wasn't used outside of KUnit, so it should be safe to remove from the public interface. It's also generally dangerous, as shown above, and shouldn't be used.
