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

 



From: Oliver Neukum <oneukum@xxxxxxxx>

commit b55a21b764c1e182014630fa5486d717484ac58f upstream.

usbnet_write_cmd_async() mixed up which buffers
need to be freed in which error case.

v3: fix uninitialized buf pointer

Fixes: 877bd862f32b8 ("usbnet: introduce usbnet 3 command helpers")
