[patch added to the 3.12 stable tree] ieee802154: fix error handling in ieee802154fake_probe()

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

 



From: Alexey Khoroshilov <khoroshilov@xxxxxxxxx>

This patch has been added to the 3.12 stable tree. If you have any
objections, please let us know.

===============

[ Upstream commit 8c2dd54485ccee7fc4086611e188478584758c8d ]

In case of any failure ieee802154fake_probe() just calls unregister_netdev().
But it does not look safe to unregister netdevice before it was registered.

The patch implements straightforward resource deallocation in case of
failure in ieee802154fake_probe().

Found by Linux Driver Verification project (linuxtesting.org).
