[PATCH 4.4 039/137] usbnet: cleanup after bind() in probe()
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Sun Apr 17 2016 - 23:06:17 EST
4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Oliver Neukum <oneukum@xxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 1666984c8625b3db19a9abc298931d35ab7bc64b ]
In case bind() works, but a later error forces bailing
in probe() in error cases work and a timer may be scheduled.
They must be killed. This fixes an error case related to
the double free reported in
http://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg367669.html
and needs to go on top of Linus' fix to cdc-ncm.
