Subject: [ 43/59] tcm_fc: Do not free tpg structure during wq allocation failure

3.2-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Mark Rustad <mark.d.rustad@...el.com>

commit 06383f10c49f507220594a455c6491ca6f8c94ab upstream.

Avoid freeing a registered tpg structure if an alloc_workqueue call
fails.  This fixes a bug where the failure was leaking memory associated
with se_portal_group setup during the original core_tpg_register() call.
