Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 4.18 128/136] ath10k: fix memory leak of tpc_stats

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@...onical.com>

[ Upstream commit 260e629bbf441585860e21d5e10d2e88437f47c8 ]

Currently tpc_stats is allocated and is leaked on the return
path if num_tx_chain is greater than WMI_TPC_TX_N_CHAIN. Avoid
this leak by performing the check on num_tx_chain before the
allocation of tpc_stats.

Detected by CoverityScan, CID#1469422 ("Resource Leak")
Fixes: 4b190675ad06 ("ath10k: fix kernel panic while reading tpc_stats")
