Subject: [PATCH][V2] net/ethoc: fix null dereference on error exit path
Date: Wed,  1 Jun 2016 14:16:50 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1464787010-3089-1-git-send-email-colin.king@canonical.com> (raw)

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com>

priv is assigned to NULL however some of the early error exit paths to
label 'free' dereference priv, causing a null pointer dereference.

Move the label 'free' to just the free_netdev statement, and add a new
exit path 'free2' for the error cases were clk_disable_unprepare needs
calling before the final free.

Fixes issue found by CoverityScan, CID#113260
