The NLMSG_PUT() macro contains a hidden goto that jumps to the nlmsg_failure label. Since the sk_buff was allocated before the macro, jumping to the nlmsg_failure label leaks the memory allocated for it. Calling kfree() before returning would fix it, but is better to avoid using this error prone macro and use nlmsg_put() instead. Also, use nlmsg_data() instead of NLMSG_DATA() to check type.
