[PATCH 01/12] batctl: handle netlink callback object on error
Sven Eckelmann <[email protected]> Wed, 08 Jul 2026 22:00:07 +0200

The libnl callback object is allocated and must be deallocated when it is
no longer used. This is especially important when an error happened.
Fixes: d8dd1ff1a0fe ("batctl: Use netlink to replace some of debugfs")
Fixes: f109b3473f86 ("batctl: introduce throughput meter support")
