Subject[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.19 170/219] tipc: fix memory leak in tipc_nl_compat_publ_dump
Date
From: "Gustavo A. R. Silva" <gustavo@embeddedor.com>

[ Upstream commit f87d8ad9233f115db92c6c087d58403b0009ed36 ]

There is a memory leak in case genlmsg_put fails.

Fix this by freeing *args* before return.
