Nope.  rx_submit() will call usb_free_urb() before returning an error:


static int rx_submit (struct usbnet *dev, struct urb *urb, gfp_t flags)
..
	if (!skb) {
		netif_dbg(dev, rx_err, dev->net, "no rx skb\n");
		usbnet_defer_kevent (dev, EVENT_RX_MEMORY);
		usb_free_urb (urb);
		return -ENOMEM;
	}
..
	if (retval) {
		dev_kfree_skb_any (skb);
		usb_free_urb (urb);
	}
