From c2fd34469d1623111e3c3db65cde533f3bddc26e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jia-Ju Bai Date: Fri, 18 Mar 2016 13:28:33 +1100 Subject: [PATCH] iwl4965: Fix a memory leak in error handling code of __il4965_up When il4965_hw_nic_init in __il4965_up fails, the memory allocated by iwl4965_sta_alloc_lq in iwl4965_alloc_bcast_station is not freed. This patches adds il_dealloc_bcast_stations in the error handling code of __il4965_up to fix this problem. This patch has been tested in real device, and it actually fixes the bug.
