[PATCH] fpga manager: Fix firmware resource leak on error

From: Tobias Klauser
Date: Wed Nov 18 2015 - 04:48:26 EST


If fpga_mgr_buf_load() fails, the firmware resource previously allocated
by request_firmware() is leaked. Fix it by calling release_firmware()
regardless of the return value of fpga_mgr_buf_load().

Found by the Coverity scanner (CID 1339653).
