Subject: [PATCH 3.16 303/346] irda: Free skb on irda_accept error path.

3.16.39-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: "phil.turnbull@...cle.com" <phil.turnbull@...cle.com>

commit 8ab86c00e349cef9fb14719093a7f198bcc72629 upstream.

skb is not freed if newsk is NULL. Rework the error path so free_skb is
unconditionally called on function exit.
