In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: wwan: iosm: fix memory leak in ipcwwandellink
IOSM driver registers network device without setting the needsfreenetdev flag, and does NOT call free_netdev() when unregisters network device, which causes a memory leak.
This patch sets needsfreenetdev to true when registers network device, which makes netdev subsystem call freenetdev() automatically after unregisternetdevice().
