#1462079 — [PATCH 3.16 080/305] IB/IWPM: Fix a potential skb leak

3.16.37-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Mark Bloch <markb@mellanox.com>

commit 5ed935e861a4cbf2158ad3386d6d26edd60d2658 upstream.

In case ibnl_put_msg fails in send_nlmsg_done,
the function returns with -ENOMEM without freeing.

This patch fixes this behavior.

Fixes: 30dc5e63d6a5 ("RDMA/core: Add support for iWARP Port Mapper user space service")
