From: Thomas Falcon Date: Tue, 6 Feb 2018 23:25:23 +0000 (-0600) Subject: ibmvnic: Ensure that buffers are NULL after free X-Git-Tag: microblaze-4.16-rc6~48^2~28 X-Git-Url: http://git.monstr.eu/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b0992eca00c490c0923044b7d8b853c212b3cacc;p=linux-2.6-microblaze.git ibmvnic: Ensure that buffers are NULL after free This change will guard against a double free in the case that the buffers were previously freed at some other time, such as during a device reset. It resolves a kernel oops that occurred when changing the VNIC device's MTU. Signed-off-by: Thomas Falcon Signed-off-by: David S.
