This doesn't apply against staging-next. This fix seems to attack the same
problem as existing commit 2af9e74 (staging: rtl8712: fix potential leaks in
r8712_set_key()) - http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-driver-devel/msg46501.html

I think we talked about that already - see
http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-driver-devel/msg46294.html

Christian
