From b8d297c93a888fcd4d74ba0bbeeabe9b84caf514 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Erik Hovland Date: Mon, 23 Apr 2007 10:50:15 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] usb ethernet gadget, workaround network stack API glitch Another workaround for the glitch in the network layer, whereby one call ignores the (otherwise kernel-wide) convention that free() calls should not oops when passed nulls. This code already handles that API glitch in most other paths.
