Subject: [patch] mtd: nand: sunxi: prevent a small memory leak
Date: Fri, 24 Jun 2016 15:24:03 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20160624122403.GC23169@mwanda> (raw)

I moved the sanity check on ecc->size before the allocation so that we
don't leak memory on error.

Fixes: 05af074a4b73 ('mtd: nand: sunxi: check ecc->size values')
Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com>
