[PATCH v2] brcmsmac: fix memory leak in wlc_phy_attach_lcnphy

flat view
STALE2239d LANDED

From: Keita Suzuki <hidden>
Date: 2020-09-08 17:35:17
Also in: lkml, netdev
Subsystem: broadcom brcm80211 ieee802.11 wireless drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Arend van Spriel, Linus Torvalds

Status: Landed in mainline as f4443293d741 on 2020-09-09.

When wlc_phy_txpwr_srom_read_lcnphy fails in wlc_phy_attach_lcnphy,
the allocated pi->u.pi_lcnphy is leaked, since struct brcms_phy will be
freed in the caller function.

Fix this by calling wlc_phy_detach_lcnphy in the error handler of
wlc_phy_txpwr_srom_read_lcnphy before returning.

changelog(v2): change call from wlc_phy_detach_lcnphy() to kfree()
