[PATCH 3.16 155/346] USB: serial: fix memleak in driver-registration error path

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

 



3.16.39-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Alexey Klimov <klimov.linux@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 647024a7df36014bbc4479d92d88e6b77c0afcf6 upstream.

udriver struct allocated by kzalloc() will not be freed
if usb_register() and next calls fail. This patch fixes this
by adding one more step with kfree(udriver) in error path.
