media: lirc: don't kfree the uninitialized pointer txbuf
The current error exit path if ir_raw_encode_scancode fails is via the label out_kfree which kfree's an uninitialized pointer txbuf. Fix this by exiting via a new exit path that does not kfree txbuf. Also exit via this new exit path for a failed allocation of txbuf to avoid a redundant kfree on a NULL pointer (to save a bunch of CPU cycles). Detected by: CoverityScan, CID#1463070 ("Uninitialized pointer read") Fixes: f81a8158d4fb ("media: lirc: release lock before sleep") Signed-off-by: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: Sean Young <sean@mess.org> Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>
