Date: Sun, 26 Sep 2010 13:58:09 +0400 From: Vasiliy Kulikov <segooon@...il.com> To: kernel-janitors@...r.kernel.org Cc: Ursula Braun <ursula.braun@...ibm.com>, Frank Blaschka <blaschka@...ux.vnet.ibm.com>, linux390@...ibm.com, Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@...ibm.com>, Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@...ibm.com>, "David S. Miller" <davem@...emloft.net>, Julia Lawall <julia@...u.dk>, linux-s390@...r.kernel.org, linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Subject: [PATCH 4/9] s390: use free_netdev(netdev) instead of kfree() Freeing netdev without free_netdev() leads to net, tx leaks. I might lead to dereferencing freed pointer.
