Subject: [patch 2/2] [media] r820t: memory leak in release()
Date: Thu, 18 Apr 2013 22:21:17 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130418192117.GB17798@elgon.mountain> (raw)
I've moved the kfree(fe->tuner_priv) one line earlier, otherwise it is
a no-op.
Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com>

This is a static checker fix and I have not tested it.
