Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL for 3.18 03/16] USB: gadgetfs: Fix a potential memory
 leak in 'dev_config()'

From: Christophe JAILLET <christophe.jaillet@...adoo.fr>

[ Upstream commit b6e7aeeaf235901c42ec35de4633c7c69501d303 ]

'kbuf' is allocated just a few lines above using 'memdup_user()'.
If the 'if (dev->buf)' test fails, this memory is never released.
