drivers/net/irda: Eliminate memory leak
dev_alloc_skb allocates some memory, so that memory should be freed before leaving the function in an error case. Corrected some typos in a nearby comment as well. A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @r exists@ local idexpression x; expression E; identifier f1; iterator I; @@ x = dev_alloc_skb(...); <... when != x when != true (x == NULL || ...) when != if (...) { <+...x...+> } when != I (...) { <+...x...+> } ( x == NULL | x == E | x->f1 ) ...> * return ...; // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> Signed-off-by: David S.
