[PATCH net v2 3/4] net: renesas: rswitch: fix leaked pointer on error path
From: Nikita Yushchenko
Date: Fri Dec 06 2024 - 14:01:35 EST
If error path is taken while filling descriptor for a frame, skb
pointer is left in the entry. Later, on the ring entry reuse, the
same entry could be used as a part of a multi-descriptor frame,
and skb for that new frame could be stored in a different entry.
Then, the stale pointer will reach the completion routine, and passed
to the release operation.
Fix that by clearing the saved skb pointer at the error path.
Fixes: d2c96b9d5f83 ("net: rswitch: Add jumbo frames handling for TX")
