wifi: mwifiex: Fix memory leak in mwifiex_11n_aggregate_pkt()
[ Upstream commit 990a73d ]
In mwifiex_11n_aggregate_pkt(), skb_aggr is allocated via
mwifiex_alloc_dma_align_buf(). If mwifiex_is_ralist_valid() returns false,
the function currently returns -1 immediately without freeing the
previously allocated skb_aggr, causing a memory leak.
Since skb_aggr has not yet been queued via skb_queue_tail(), no other
references to this memory exist. Therefore, it has to be freed locally
before returning the error.
Fix this by calling mwifiex_write_data_complete() to free skb_aggr before
returning the error status.
Compile tested only. Issue found using a prototype static analysis tool
and code review.
