The bad commit was 9ff1cc4ef80e ("staging: r8188eu: remove rtw_buf_free() function").

Looking at it, the only difference between the original wrapper and the new code is that the wrapper zeros the len variable before the kfree() call, but making that change did not help. Reverting that patch restores the old behavior.

There are lots of these on Ebay from $2.47 up with free shipping!
