Subject: [PATCH] staging: davinci: fix memory leaks and check for allocation failure

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

There are three error return paths that don't kfree params causing a
memory leak.  Fix this by adding an error return path that kfree's
params before returning.  Also add a check to see params failed to
be allocated.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Resource leak")
Fixes: da43b6ccadcf ("[media] davinci: vpfe: dm365: add IPIPE support for media controller driver")
