Subject: Fix memory leak in sierra_release() (this time with signed-off-by)
Date: Wed, 24 Oct 2012 10:23:09 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20121024142309.GQ18610@csclub.uwaterloo.ca> (raw)
I found a memory leak in sierra_release() (well sierra_probe() I guess)
that looses 8 bytes each time the driver releases a device.
