4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Pan Bian <bianpan2016@xxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 72ec0bc64b9a5d8e0efcb717abfc757746b101b7 ] In functions team_nl_send_port_list_get() and team_nl_send_options_get(), pointer skb keeps the return value of nlmsg_new(). When the call to genlmsg_put() fails, the memory is not freed(). This will result in memory leak bugs.
