[PATCH] Net, libertas: Resolve memory leak in if_spi_host_to_card()

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

 



If we hit the default case in the switch in if_spi_host_to_card() we'll leak
the memory we allocated for 'packet'. This patch resolves the leak by freeing
the allocated memory in that case.
