From: Kim Wooseok <5mghybrid@khu.ac.kr> When usb_submit_urb() fails, rtl8xxxu_submit_rx_urb() unanchors the URB but leaves the newly allocated skb in urb.context. For ENOMEM/EAGAIN, the RX worker puts the request back on the pending list. The next submission allocates another skb and overwrites that pointer, leaking the previous buffer. Stopping before the retry also leaks it, because pending-list cleanup frees only the URB. Free the skb and clear urb.context in rtl8xxxu_submit_rx_urb() when submission fails. This keeps buffer allocation and failure cleanup in the same function, so a request returned for retry or teardown no longer owns an skb. Remove the corresponding cleanup from start and the RX worker; they only need to decide whether to retry or free the URB.

If a later allocation fails, the error path frees the TX pool but leaves earlier RX requests active. A partial TX or RX allocation failure can also leave ret at zero, so start reports success despite the incomplete setup. Allocate the RX pool before submitting any of it, and return ENOMEM whenever a pool allocation fails. Pass start errors through rtl8xxxu_stop(), including interrupt URB submission failures, so the existing stop path cancels work and releases both active requests and partially allocated pools. Share the submission loop with the RX worker. Both callers keep requests that fail with ENOMEM/EAGAIN. For a fatal error during startup, free the rest of the unsubmitted batch and return the error so start can unwind. In the worker, free only the failed request and continue with the rest of the batch. Keep the allocation loop in a small helper so the setup and error paths in start remain easy to follow. On an RTL8192EU, I exercised every error exit in rtl8xxxu_start() except interrupt-URB allocation and submission failures, which this adapter does not use.

It starts with 32 URBs, but frees them on completion errors. After enough errors, the remaining pool can no longer reach the submission threshold. Reception then stays stopped even after the errors end. Temporary submission failures can leave a small batch waiting with no further work scheduled, too. Keep the URB when a completion reports EPROTO, EILSEQ, ETIME, EOVERFLOW, ECOMM or ENOSR. Free its receive buffer and return the request to the same pending list used by normal completions. ENOMEM/EAGAIN from startup or worker submission uses this path as well, so a submission failure cannot strand a request during recovery. Use one delayed work item to submit the pending requests. An error queues a retry after 100 ms without moving an existing reservation back. If a normal completion takes the pending count above eight, mod_delayed_work(..., 0) brings the work forward. This limits repeated retries when reception is not progressing, while allowing normal traffic to replenish the pool promptly. The 100 ms delay is therefore not a minimum wait for each failed URB. Keep the shutdown check, queue insertion and scheduling under the RX lock. Stop sets shutdown under that lock, cancels the delayed work synchronously, then drains active and pending requests. Cancellation and device removal continue to free their URBs.
