Subject: [06/80] irda: Correctly clean up self->ias_obj on irda_bind() failure.

2.6.35-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------


From: David S. Miller <davem@...emloft.net>

[ Upstream commit 628e300cccaa628d8fb92aa28cb7530a3d5f2257 ]

If irda_open_tsap() fails, the irda_bind() code tries to destroy
the ->ias_obj object by hand, but does so wrongly.

In particular, it fails to a) release the hashbin attached to the
object and b) reset the self->ias_obj pointer to NULL.

Fix both problems by using irias_delete_object() and explicitly
setting self->ias_obj to NULL, just as irda_release() does.
