Subject: [PATCH ethtool 1/2] fix memory leaks in do_sfeatures()
Date: Fri, 25 Sep 2020 09:05:26 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200925070527.1001190-1-ivecera@redhat.com> (raw)

Memory blocks referenced by new_state and old_state are never freed.
For efeatures there is no need to check pointer as free() can be called
with NULL parameter.

Fixes: 6042804cf6ec ("Change -k/-K options to use ETHTOOL_{G,S}FEATURES")
