[023/140] cpmac: do not leak struct net_device on phy_connect errors

From: Greg KH
Date: Fri Jul 30 2010 - 14:54:51 EST


2.6.33-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Florian Fainelli <florian@xxxxxxxxxxx>

commit ed770f01360b392564650bf1553ce723fa46afec upstream.

If the call to phy_connect fails, we will return directly instead of freeing
the previously allocated struct net_device.
