This reverts commit d7807a9adf4856171f8441f13078c33941df48ab. As mentioned in https://lkml.org/lkml/2021/9/13/1819 5 years old commit 919483096bfe ("ipv4: fix memory leaks in ip_cmsg_send() callers") was a correct fix. ip_cmsg_send() can loop over multiple cmsghdr() If IP_RETOPTS has been successful, but following cmsghdr generates an error, we do not free ipc.ok If IP_RETOPTS is not successful, we have freed the allocated temporary space, not the one currently in ipc.opt. Sure, code could be refactored, but let's not bring back old bugs.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
