Subject: [PATCH] ath5k: fix memory leak when fewer than N_PD_CURVES are in use
Date: Tue, 28 Jun 2011 23:04:51 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110629030451.GA2920@hash.lan> (raw)

From: Eugene A. Shatokhin <dame_eugene@mail.ru>

We would free the proper number of curves, but in the wrong
slots, due to a missing level of indirection through
the pdgain_idx table.

It's simpler just to try to free all four slots, so do that.
