Subject: [PATCH v2 6/8] bus/uacce: remove memset before free
Date: Wed, 13 Nov 2024 17:52:20 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20241114015405.77060-7-stephen@networkplumber.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20241114015405.77060-1-stephen@networkplumber.org>
Doing memset before free maybe removed by compiler, and
is flagged by security scanning tools as potential problem.
In this case the memset is unnecessary.
