From 9fd9f9b669ca71f7b3a7709d02d305c3d428d2fe Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ben Dooks Date: Mon, 7 May 2007 11:13:25 +0000 Subject: DM9000: fix use of kfree() on net device The DM9000 network driver is calling kfree() on an netdev causing the system to oops if the probe fails. The right thing to do is call free_netdev(). Thanks to Russell King for spotting this.
