When the hfi1 driver is unloaded, kmemleak will report the following
issue:
unreferenced object 0xffff8888461a4c08 (size 8):

This patch fixes the issue by:
- Releasing dd->per_sdma[i].kobject in hfi1_unregister_sysfs().
- This will fix the memory leak.
- Calling kobject_put() to unwind operations only for those entries in
dd->per_sdma[] whose operations have succeeded (including the current
one that has just failed) in hfi1_verbs_register_sysfs().

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.
