[PATCH] brcmsmac: mac80211_if: Fix a resource leak in an error handling path

From: Christophe JAILLET <hidden>
Date: 2021-05-12 22:05:44
Also in: linux-wireless, lkml, netdev
Subsystem: broadcom brcm80211 ieee802.11 wireless drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Arend van Spriel, Linus Torvalds

If 'brcms_attach()' fails, we must undo the previous 'ieee80211_alloc_hw()'
as already done in the remove function.

Fixes: 5b435de0d786 ("net: wireless: add brcm80211 drivers")
Signed-off-by: Christophe JAILLET <redacted>
