net/can bugfix: use after free bug in can protocol drivers
Fix a use after free bug in can protocol drivers The release functions of the can protocol drivers lack a call to sock_orphan() which leads to referencing freed memory under certain circumstances. This patch fixes a bug reported here: https://lists.berlios.de/pipermail/socketcan-users/2009-July/000985.html Signed-off-by: Lothar Wassmann <LW@KARO-electronics.de> Acked-by: Oliver Hartkopp <oliver@hartkopp.net> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
