From 22138d307329e1968fc698821095b87c2fd5de12 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kulikov Vasiliy Date: Sat, 25 Sep 2010 23:58:03 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] rionet: use free_netdev(netdev) instead of kfree() Freeing netdev without free_netdev() leads to net, tx leaks. I might lead to dereferencing freed pointer.
