[PATCH v3] can: usb: etas_es58x: Fix RX buffer leak on URB resubmit failure
From: Guangshuo Li
Date: Sun Jul 05 2026 - 21:49:16 EST
es58x_read_bulk_callback() resubmits the RX URB after processing a
received packet. If the resubmit succeeds, the URB remains anchored and
will be handled by the normal RX path or by teardown.
However, if usb_submit_urb() fails, the callback unanchors the URB and
then returns directly. This skips the existing free_urb path, so the
coherent transfer buffer allocated with usb_alloc_coherent() is not
released.
Reuse the existing free_urb path after a resubmit failure so that the RX
coherent buffer is freed before leaving the callback.
Fixes: 5eaad4f76826 ("can: usb: etas_es58x: correctly anchor the urb in the read bulk callback")

v3:
- Regenerate the patch against the correct base so it removes the
original return statement instead of the v1-added goto.
- Add the missing changelog. No functional change intended.
v2:
- Remove the redundant goto and let the error path fall through to
free_urb, as suggested by Vincent Mailhol.
- Add Vincent's Reviewed-by tag
