[PATCH 6.0 050/190] net: wwan: iosm: fix memory leak in ipc_wwan_dellink

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

 



From: HW He <hw.he@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit f25caaca424703d5a0607310f0452f978f1f78d9 ]

IOSM driver registers network device without setting the
needs_free_netdev flag, and does NOT call free_netdev() when
unregisters network device, which causes a memory leak.

This patch sets needs_free_netdev to true when registers
network device, which makes netdev subsystem call free_netdev()
automatically after unregister_netdevice().
