Subject: [PATCH 7/8 v3] x86, UV: correct failed topology memory leak

From: Cliff Wickman <cpw@....com>

Fix a memory leak in init_per_cpu() when the topology checks fail.

The leak should never occur in practice.  It would only occur in an
unexpected topology that would make the BAU unuseable as a result.  

Diffed against 3.0.0-rc3
