3.16.85-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Jouni Hogander <jouni.hogan...@unikie.com>
commit e58c1912418980f57ba2060017583067f5f71e52 upstream.
Slip_open doesn't clean-up device which registration failed from the
slip_devs device list. On next open after failure this list is iterated
and freed device is accessed. Fix this by calling sl_free_netdev in error
path.
Here is the trace from the Syzbot:
