The patch titled
orinoco: possible null pointer dereference in orinoco_rx_monitor()
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename is
orinoco-possible-null-pointer-dereference-in-orinoco_rx_monitor.patch
This patch was probably dropped from -mm because
it has now been merged into a subsystem tree or
into Linus's tree, or because it was folded into
its parent patch in the -mm tree.
------------------------------------------------------
Subject: orinoco: possible null pointer dereference in orinoco_rx_monitor()
From: Florin Malita <fmalita@xxxxxxxxx>
If the skb allocation fails, the current error path calls
dev_kfree_skb_irq() with a NULL argument. Also, 'err' is not being used.
Coverity CID: 275.
