Donenfeld" <Jason@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri, 7 Apr 2017 02:33:30 +0200 Subject: padata: free correct variable From: Jason A. Donenfeld <Jason@xxxxxxxxx> commit 07a77929ba672d93642a56dc2255dd21e6e2290b upstream. The author meant to free the variable that was just allocated, instead of the one that failed to be allocated, but made a simple typo. This patch rectifies that. Signed-off-by: Jason A.
