[ 94/98] USB: garmin_gps: fix memory leak on disconnect

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

 



3.8-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Johan Hovold <jhovold@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 618aa1068df29c37a58045fe940f9106664153fd upstream.

Remove bogus disconnect test introduced by 95bef012e ("USB: more serial
drivers writing after disconnect") which prevented queued data from
being freed on disconnect.

The possible IO it was supposed to prevent is long gone.
