[PATCH] perf/x86/intel/uncore: fix memory leaks on allocation failures

From: Colin King
Date: Mon Oct 09 2017 - 13:27:08 EST


From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Currently if an allocation fails then the error return paths
don't free up any currently allocated pmus[].boxes and pmus causing
a memory leak. Add an error clean up exit path that frees these
objects.

Detected by CoverityScan, CID#711632 ("Resource Leak")

Fixes: 087bfbb03269 ("perf/x86: Add generic Intel uncore PMU support")
