Subject: [PATCH 03/10] batman-adv: release vlan object after checking the CRC
Date: Mon, 17 Feb 2014 21:48:42 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1392670129-2498-4-git-send-email-antonio@meshcoding.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1392670129-2498-1-git-send-email-antonio@meshcoding.com>

There is a refcounter unbalance in the CRC checking routine
invoked on OGM reception. A vlan object is retrieved (thus
its refcounter is increased by one) but it is never properly
released. This leads to a memleak because the vlan object
will never be free'd.

Fix this by releasing the vlan object after having read the
CRC.
