Subject: [PATCH 2/2] drivers: staging: wilc1000: Call kfree only for error cases
Date: Sat,  3 Oct 2015 14:57:30 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1443864450-18167-2-git-send-email-csgorentla@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1443864450-18167-1-git-send-email-csgorentla@gmail.com>

 - kfree is being called for the members of the queue without
   de-queuing them; they are just inserted within this function;
   they are supposed to be de-queued and freed in a function
   for receiving the queue items
 - goto statements are removed
 - After kfree correction, there is no need for target block
   of goto statement; hence it is removed
