Subject: [PATCH 4.19 024/187] mm/cma.c: cma_declare_contiguous: correct err handling

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

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

[ Upstream commit 0d3bd18a5efd66097ef58622b898d3139790aa9d ]

In case cma_init_reserved_mem failed, need to free the memblock
allocated by memblock_reserve or memblock_alloc_range.

Quote Catalin's comments:
  https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/2/26/482

Kmemleak is supposed to work with the memblock_{alloc,free} pair and it
ignores the memblock_reserve() as a memblock_alloc() implementation
detail. It is, however, tolerant to memblock_free() being called on
a sub-range or just a different range from a previous memblock_alloc().
So the original patch looks fine to me. FWIW:
