[PATCH] staging: rtl8192e: rtllib_module: Fix memory leak in alloc_rtllib

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



In the implementation of alloc_rtllib() the allocated dev is leaked in
case of ieee->pHTInfo allocation failure. Release via free_netdev(dev).

Fixes: 6869a11bff1d ("Staging: rtl8192e: Use !x instead of x == NULL")
