Subject: staging: rtl8723au: Remove buggy function _rtw_report_sec_ie()
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=959226ac54b1b4cf9d6d2b496e097a29b4b1d338;p=linux-beck.git

staging: rtl8723au: Remove buggy function _rtw_report_sec_ie()

This function was extremely buggy calling kmalloc(GFP_KERNEL) while
holding a spin lock and then potentially overflowing the buffer it had
allocated.

Since the generated output wasn't used for anything, simply rip the
whole thing out.
