The "hostcmd" is freed using cleanup.h, so calling kfree() will lead to
a double free. Delete the kfree().

Hi Dan, thanks for spotting and fixing the double free error. I converted the code to use the cleanup helper late in the dev process and forgot to remove the call. I sent a patch for the endianness bug as well. On 05.09.25 10:02, Dan Carpenter wrote: > The "hostcmd" is freed using cleanup.h, so calling kfree() will lead to > a double free.
