[PATCH] igb: Fix a memory leak in igb_probe

From: Jia-Ju Bai
Date: Wed Aug 05 2015 - 10:05:39 EST


In error handling code of igb_probe, the memory adapter->shadow_vfta
allocated by kcalloc in igb_sw_init is not freed. So when register_netdev
or igb_init_i2c is failed, a memory leak will occur.
This patch adds kfree to fix it.
