commit6107c5da0fupstream. batadv_show_throughput_override() invokes batadv_hardif_get_by_netdev(), which gets a batadv_hard_iface object from net_dev with increased refcnt and its reference is assigned to a local pointer 'hard_iface'. When batadv_store_throughput_override() returns, "hard_iface" becomes invalid, so the refcount should be decreased to keep refcount balanced. The issue happens in one error path of batadv_store_throughput_override(). When batadv_parse_throughput() returns NULL, the refcnt increased by batadv_hardif_get_by_netdev() is not decreased, causing a refcnt leak. Fix this issue by jumping to "out" label when batadv_parse_throughput() returns NULL.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
