Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: Fix TDLS support validation in add_station handler
Date: Sun, 23 Oct 2011 22:36:04 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20111023193604.GA18257@jm.kir.nu> (raw)

We need to verify whether the command is successful before allocating
the station entry to avoid extra processing. This also fixes a memory
leak on the error path.
