Subject: [PATCH 3.2 23/59] padata: free correct variable

3.2.92-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: "Jason A. Donenfeld" <Jason@...c4.com>

commit 07a77929ba672d93642a56dc2255dd21e6e2290b upstream.

The author meant to free the variable that was just allocated, instead
of the one that failed to be allocated, but made a simple typo. This
patch rectifies that.
