Commitb592211c33("dm mpath: fix attached_handler_name leak and dangling hw_handler_name pointer") fixed a memory leak for the case where setup_scsi_dh() returns failure. But setup_scsi_dh may return success and not "use" attached_handler_name if the retain_attached_hwhandler flag is not set on the map. As setup_scsi_sh properly "steals" the pointer by nullifying it, freeing it unconditionally in parse_path() is safe.

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.
