[PATCH] serial: vt8500: fix possible memory leak in vt8500_serial_probe()

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

 



From: Wei Yongjun <yongjun_wei@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

vt8500_port is malloced in vt8500_serial_probe() and should be freed
before leaving from the error handling cases, otherwise it will
cause memory leak.
