[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.20 242/304] ath10k: fix tx_stats memory leak

From: Sasha Levin
Date: Mon Jan 28 2019 - 12:34:40 EST


From: Zhi Chen <zhichen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 386f97e3b201d18578abb0e7037b85a1ae50c0a3 ]

Memory of tx_stats was allocated when a STA was added. But it's not freed
if the STA failed to be added to driver. This issue could be seen in MDK3
attack case when STA number reached the limit.

Tested: QCA9984 with firmware ver 10.4-3.9.0.1-00005
