[PATCH v5] staging: r8188eu: add kfree() on an error path of rtw_xmit_resource_alloc()

[xkernel . wang]

From: Xiaoke Wang <xkernel.wang@xxxxxxxxxxx>

In rtw_xmit_resource_alloc(), if usb_alloc_urb() fails, then the memory
`pxmitbuf->pallocated_buf` which is allocated by kzalloc() is not properly
released before returning.
So this patch adds kfree() on the above error path to release it in time.

Tested-by: Philipp Hortmann <philipp.g.hortmann@xxxxxxxxx> # Edimax N150
Signed-off-by: Xiaoke Wang <xkernel.wang@xxxxxxxxxxx>

ChangeLog:
v1->v2 update the description.
v2->v3 rebase.
v3->v4 update the description.
v4->v5 rebase and update the corresponding subject and description.
Note that the original function name was changed, so the subject of this
patch is updated from "[PATCH v4] staging: r8188eu: fix potential memory
leak in rtw_os_xmit_resource_alloc()" to "[PATCH v5] staging: r8188eu: add
kfree() on an error path of rtw_xmit_resource_alloc()".
In addition, thanks to Philipp Hortmann for his testing and advice.
