From c936e8bd1de2fa50c49e3df6fa5036bf07870b67 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Xiaotian Feng Date: Mon, 31 May 2010 16:41:09 +0200 Subject: netfilter: don't xt_jumpstack_alloc twice in xt_register_table In xt_register_table, xt_jumpstack_alloc is called first, later xt_replace_table is used. But in xt_replace_table, xt_jumpstack_alloc will be used again. Then the memory allocated by previous xt_jumpstack_alloc will be leaked. We can simply remove the previous xt_jumpstack_alloc because there aren't any users of newinfo between xt_jumpstack_alloc and xt_replace_table.
