Subject: [PATCH] Char: virtio_console, fix memory leak
Date: Sat,  6 Nov 2010 10:06:50 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1289034412-24278-2-git-send-email-jslaby@suse.cz> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1289034412-24278-1-git-send-email-jslaby@suse.cz>

Stanse found that in init_vqs, memory is leaked under certain
circumstanses (the fail path order is incorrect). Fix that by checking
allocations in one turn and free all of them at once if some fails
(some may be NULL, but this is OK).
