Hi, Dongliang,

thank you for confirmation. As I said in reply to [1] Yanfei's patch is 
also correct, but it solves other memory leak in same function.

AFAIU, if my patch will be applied too there will be 2 fix patches on 
syzkaller bug report page, so no need to remove Yanfei's patch from bug 
report page :)
