Subject: [ 085/105] USB: sierra: fix memory leak in probe error path

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

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

From: Johan Hovold <jhovold@...il.com>

commit 084817d79399ab5ccab2f90a148b0369912a8369 upstream.

Move interface data allocation to attach so that it is deallocated on
errors in usb-serial probe.
