[PATCH] Staging: wlan-ng: wiphy_free() is not called in case wiphy_register() fails

From: Claudiu Beznea
Date: Wed Mar 23 2016 - 14:38:15 EST


This patch covers wiphy_register() failures in wlan_create_wiphy()
from cfg80211.c by calling wiphy_free() for the correspondent
struct wiphy allocated structure.
