3.17-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Alexey Khoroshilov <khoroshilov@xxxxxxxxx> [ 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().
