From: Xin Long Date: Tue, 30 Apr 2024 10:03:38 -0400 Subject: tipc: fix a possible memleak in tipc_buf_append Origin: https://git.kernel.org/linus/97bf6f81b29a8efaf5d0983251a7450e5794370d __skb_linearize() doesn't free the skb when it fails, so move '*buf = NULL' after __skb_linearize(), so that the skb can be freed on the err path.
