[PATCH] qcserial: fix a memory leak in qcprobe error path

From: Axel Lin
Date: Tue Jun 08 2010 - 03:28:41 EST


In current implemtation, the "data" is not kfreed in qcprobe error path.
This patch moves the memory allocation a little bit latter and only
allocate memory when no error is detected in previous checking.
