Subject: [PATCH] usbnet: cleanup after bind() in probe()
Date: Mon,  7 Mar 2016 11:31:10 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1457346670-24059-1-git-send-email-oneukum@suse.com> (raw)

In case bind() works, but a later error forces bailing
in probe() in error cases work and a timer may be scheduled.
They must be killed. This fixes an error case related to
the double free reported in
http://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg367669.html
and needs to go on top of Linus' fix to cdc-ncm.
