Subject: [PATCH 3.16 169/178] team: fix memory leaks

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

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

From: Pan Bian <bianpan2016@....com>

commit 72ec0bc64b9a5d8e0efcb717abfc757746b101b7 upstream.

In functions team_nl_send_port_list_get() and
team_nl_send_options_get(), pointer skb keeps the return value of
nlmsg_new(). When the call to genlmsg_put() fails, the memory is not
freed(). This will result in memory leak bugs.

Fixes: 9b00cf2d1024 ("team: implement multipart netlink messages for options transfers")
