Subject: [Patch net] tipc: fix a memory leak in tipc_nl_node_get_link()
Date: Wed, 10 Jan 2018 12:50:25 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180110205025.7124-1-xiyou.wangcong@gmail.com> (raw)

When tipc_node_find_by_name() fails, the nlmsg is not
freed.

While on it, switch to a goto label to properly
free it.

Fixes: be9c086715c ("tipc: narrow down exposure of struct tipc_node")
