[PATCH] bcma: Fix mem leak in bcma_bus_scan()

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

 



bcma_bus_scan() leaks 'struct bcma_device' bytes if
bcma_get_next_core() returns error.

Restructure the code so we always kfree() the memory we allocate to
the variable 'core' before it goes out of scope.
