[PATCH] posix-timers: Fix potential memory leak in do_timer_create()

[Eslam Khafagy]

potential memory leak may happen if user space pointer created_timer_id
is invallid. or the value it points to is invalid. the call will
prematurely return.

However it doesn't free the memory it allocates with
alloc_posix_timer(). This patch attemps to fix that.
