[PATCH 3.2 11/87] rtlwifi: fix memory leak for USB device
From: Ben Hutchings
Date: Mon Feb 08 2016 - 19:10:51 EST
3.2.77-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Peter Wu <peter@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 17bc55864f81dd730d05f09b1641312a7990d636 upstream.
Free skb for received frames with a wrong checksum. This can happen
pretty rapidly, exhausting all memory.
This fixes a memleak (detected with kmemleak). Originally found while
using monitor mode, but it also appears during managed mode (once the
link is up).
