From be181015a189cd141398b761ba4e79d33fe69949 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Antonio Quartulli Date: Wed, 23 Apr 2014 14:05:16 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] batman-adv: fix reference counting imbalance while sending fragment MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit In the new fragmentation code the batadv_frag_send_packet() function obtains a reference to the primary_if, but it does not release it upon return. This reference imbalance prevents the primary_if (and then the related netdevice) to be properly released on shut down. Fix this by releasing the primary_if in batadv_frag_send_packet().
