Subject: [B.A.T.M.A.N.] [PATCH 7/8] Staging: batman-adv: avoid crash on memory allocation error
Date: Fri, 19 Feb 2010 16:18:10 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1266592691-13090-7-git-send-email-andrew@lunn.ch> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1266592691-13090-6-git-send-email-andrew@lunn.ch>
From: Marek Lindner <lindner_marek@yahoo.de>
skb_share_check() returns NULL if it can't allocate more memory but
it still frees the skbuff.
