From acf6bfef15fac288f68e1b9a1e63f8b5fee5771b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Colin Ian King Date: Wed, 3 May 2017 15:26:00 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] ath5k: fix memory leak on buf on failed eeprom read [ Upstream commit 8fed6823e06e43ee9cf7c0ffecec2f9111ce6201 ] The AR5K_EEPROM_READ macro returns with -EIO if a read error occurs causing a memory leak on the allocated buffer buf. Fix this by explicitly calling ath5k_hw_nvram_read and exiting on the via the freebuf label that performs the necessary free'ing of buf when a read error occurs.
