[PATCH net v4 4/4] ax25: Change kfree() in ax25_dev_free() to ax25_dev_put()
Posted by Duoming Zhou 1 year, 7 months ago
The object "ax25_dev" is managed by reference counting. Thus it should
not be directly released by a kfree() call in ax25_dev_free(). Replace
it with a ax25_dev_put() call instead.

Fixes: d01ffb9eee4a ("ax25: add refcount in ax25_dev to avoid UAF bugs")
