This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled net: systemport: Free DMA coherent descriptors on errors to the 4.12-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: net-systemport-free-dma-coherent-descriptors-on-errors.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.12 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From foo@baz Thu Sep 14 23:20:23 PDT 2017 From: Florian Fainelli <f.fainelli@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 24 Aug 2017 16:01:13 -0700 Subject: net: systemport: Free DMA coherent descriptors on errors From: Florian Fainelli <f.fainelli@xxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit c2062ee3d9615828109ffe8089fbf69bed394d05 ] In case bcm_sysport_init_tx_ring() is not able to allocate ring->cbs, we would return with an error, and call bcm_sysport_fini_tx_ring() and it would see that ring->cbs is NULL and do nothing. This would leak the coherent DMA descriptor area, so we need to free it on error before returning.
