Hi, Kmemleak found a possible memory leak in piix_init_one() in drivers/ata/ata_piix.c. This only appeared after 2.6.19, maybe caused by the recent patches to this area. Kmemleak cannot find any track of the kzalloc'ed piix_host_priv structure allocated in the above function and reports it. The allocation stack trace is below:
