slip: Fix memory leak in slip_open error path
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Driver/net/can/slcan.c is derived from slip.c. Memory leak was detected
by Syzkaller in slcan. Same issue exists in slip.c and this patch is
addressing the leak in slip.c.

Here is the slcan memory leak trace reported by Syzkaller:

BUG: memory leak unreferenced object 0xffff888067f65500 (size 4096):
