4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Jon Maloy <jon.maloy@xxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit a7d5f107b4978e08eeab599ee7449af34d034053 ] When the function tipc_accept_from_sock() fails to create an instance of struct tipc_subscriber it omits to free the already created instance of struct tipc_conn instance before it returns. We fix that with this commit. Reported-by: David S. Miller <davem@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Jon Maloy <jon.maloy@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: David S.
