The patch titled fix mem-leak in sidewinder driver has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename is fix-mem-leak-in-sidewinder-driver.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: fix mem-leak in sidewinder driver From: Jesper Juhl <jesper.juhl@xxxxxxxxx> In sw_connect we leak 'buf' and 'idbuf' when we do not leave via one of the fail* labels. This was spotted by the coverity checker. This patch fixes the memory leak.
