[PATCH] [media] Staging: media/lirc: don't call put_ir_rx on rx twice

From: Colin King
Date: Fri Feb 17 2017 - 11:17:42 EST


From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

There is an exit path where rx is kfree'd on put_ir_rx and then
a jump to label out_put_xx will again kfree it with another
call to put_ir_rx. Fix this by adding a new label that avoids
this 2nd call to put_ir_rx for this specific case.

Detected with CoverityScan, CID#145119 ("Use after free")
