[PATCH] staging: rtl8192e: rtllib_module: Fix memory leak in alloc_rtllib

From: Navid Emamdoost
Date: Sat Dec 14 2019 - 18:06:20 EST


In the implementation of alloc_rtllib() the allocated dev is leaked in
case of ieee->pHTInfo allocation failure. Release via free_netdev(dev).

Fixes: 6869a11bff1d ("Staging: rtl8192e: Use !x instead of x == NULL")
