[PATCHv4 2/2] staging: wilc1000: replace MALLOC_WILC_BUFFER() macro to avoid possible memory leak

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

 



The MALLOC_WILC_BUFFER() macro was using a return statement, and didn't
take care of possible memory leaks and subsequent bugs when it was failing
after succeeding some allocations. This patch corrects this behavior.
