Subject: [PATCH][V2] mt7601u: do not free dma_buf when ivp allocation fails
Date: Thu, 25 Feb 2016 23:09:59 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1456441799-19266-1-git-send-email-colin.king@canonical.com> (raw)

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com>

If the allocation of ivp fails the error handling attempts to
free an uninitialized dma_buf; this data structure just contains
garbage on the stack, so the freeing will cause issues when the
urb, buf and dma fields are free'd. Fix this by not free'ing the
dma_buf if the ivp allocation fails.
