[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.20 016/304] wil6210: fix memory leak in wil_find_tx_bcast_2

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

 



From: Lior David <liord@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 664497400c89a4d40aee51bcf48bbd2e4dc71104 ]

A successful call to wil_tx_ring takes skb reference so
it will only be freed in wil_tx_complete. Consume the skb
in wil_find_tx_bcast_2 to prevent memory leak.
