    batman-adv: Fix refcnt leak in batadv_store_throughput_override · 6107c5da
    Xiyu Yang authored
    batadv_show_throughput_override() invokes batadv_hardif_get_by_netdev(),
    which gets a batadv_hard_iface object from net_dev with increased refcnt
    and its reference is assigned to a local pointer 'hard_iface'.
    
    When batadv_store_throughput_override() returns, "hard_iface" becomes
    invalid, so the refcount should be decreased to keep refcount balanced.
    
    The issue happens in one error path of
    batadv_store_throughput_override(). When batadv_parse_throughput()
    returns NULL, the refcnt increased by batadv_hardif_get_by_netdev() is
    not decreased, causing a refcnt leak.
    
    Fix this issue by jumping to "out" label when batadv_parse_throughput()
    returns NULL.
