[PATCH 3.2 045/164] dm log userspace: fix memory leak in dm_ulog_tfr_init failure path

[Ben Hutchings]

3.2.65-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Alexey Khoroshilov <khoroshilov@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 56ec16cb1e1ce46354de8511eef962a417c32c92 upstream.

If cn_add_callback() fails in dm_ulog_tfr_init(), it does not
deallocate prealloced memory but calls cn_del_callback().

Found by Linux Driver Verification project (linuxtesting.org).
