Subject: [PATCH] net/bnxt: fix a memory leak when new malloc fail
Date: Sat, 19 Feb 2022 02:05:18 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <tencent_60C640F1849CF244D8EA007DBB8D1089800A@qq.com> (raw)

When new memory is not available and the memory "ctx" allocated
beforehand was not assigned to anywhere, so "ctx" should be freed,
otherwise will cause a memory leak.

Fixes: b4f740511655 ("net/bnxt: remove unnecessary return check")
