[PATCH v2] i2c: dev: Fix memory leak when underlying adapter does not support I2C
Posted by Igor Pylypiv 2 weeks, 1 day ago
Early return in i2cdev_ioctl_rdwr() failed to free the memory allocated
by the caller. Move freeing the memory to the function where it has been
allocated to prevent similar leaks in the future.

Fixes: 97ca843f6ad3 ("i2c: dev: Check for I2C_FUNC_I2C before calling i2c_transfer")

Applied to for-next, thanks!

I changed this to '!data_ptrs' while here because most of the file does
it like this. And checkpatch and I prefer it, too.
