[PATCH 2/4] staging: gigaset: fix illegal free on probe errors
From: Johan Hovold
Date: Fri Nov 29 2019 - 05:20:12 EST
The driver failed to initialise its receive-buffer pointer, something
which could lead to an illegal free on late probe errors.
Fix this by making sure to clear all driver data at allocation.
