In mwifiex_11n_aggregate_pkt(), skb_aggr is allocated via mwifiex_alloc_dma_align_buf(). If mwifiex_is_ralist_valid() returns false, the function currently returns -1 immediately without freeing the previously allocated skb_aggr, causing a memory leak. Since skb_aggr has not yet been queued via skb_queue_tail(), no other references to this memory exist. Therefore, it has to be freed locally before returning the error. Fix this by calling mwifiex_write_data_complete() to free skb_aggr before returning the error status. Compile tested only. Issue found using a prototype static analysis tool and code review.
