[PATCH 4.3] tipc: Fix kfree_skb() of uninitialised pointer

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

 



Commit 7098356baca7 ("tipc: fix error handling of expanding buffer
headroom") added a "goto tx_error".  This is fine upstream, but
when backported to 4.3 it results in attempting to free the clone
before it has been allocated.  In this early error case, no
cleanup is needed.
