Subject: [PATCH 4.14 19/21] kernel/module: Fix mem leak in module_add_modinfo_attrs

[ Upstream commit bc6f2a757d525e001268c3658bd88822e768f8db ]

In module_add_modinfo_attrs if sysfs_create_file
fails, we forget to free allocated modinfo_attrs
and roll back the sysfs files.

Fixes: 03e88ae1b13d ("[PATCH] fix module sysfs files reference counting")
