[PATCH 3.16 254/305] batman-adv: Fix double-put of vlan object

From: Ben Hutchings <hidden>
Date: 2016-08-14 18:00:41
Also in: lkml

3.16.37-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Ben Hutchings <redacted>

commit baceced93274ff2f846eae991664f9094425ffa8 upstream.

Each batadv_tt_local_entry hold a single reference to a
batadv_softif_vlan.  In case a new entry cannot be added to the hash
table, the error path puts the reference, but the reference will also
now be dropped by batadv_tt_local_entry_release().

Fixes: a33d970d0b54 ("batman-adv: Fix reference counting of vlan object for tt_local_entry")
