[PATCH] HID: playstation: Fix memory leak in dualshock4_get_calibration_data()
From: Abdun Nihaal
Date: Mon Nov 10 2025 - 12:21:24 EST
The memory allocated for buf is not freed in the error paths when
ps_get_report() fails. Free buf before jumping to transfer_failed label
Fixes: 947992c7fa9e ("HID: playstation: DS4: Fix calibration workaround for clone devices")
