Subject: brcmsmac: Free packet if dma_mapping_error() fails in dma_rxfill
From: Florian Fainelli <[email protected]>
commit 5c5fa1f464ac954982df1d96b9f9a5103d21aedd upstream.
In case dma_mapping_error() returns an error in dma_rxfill, we would be leaking a packet that we allocated with brcmu_pkt_buf_get_skb().
