Subject: [PATCH 4.2 218/258] rsi: Fix possible leak when loading firmware

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

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

From: Christian Engelmayer <cengelma@....at>

commit a8b9774571d46506a0774b1ced3493b1245cf893 upstream.

Commit 5d5cd85ff441 ("rsi: Fix failure to load firmware after memory
leak fix and fix the leak") also added a check on the allocation of
DMA-accessible memory that may directly return. In that case the
already allocated firmware data is leaked. Make sure the data is
always freed correctly. Detected by Coverity CID 1316519.

Fixes: 5d5cd85ff441 ("rsi: Fix failure to load firmware after memory leak fix and fix the leak")
