Subject: [PATCH 5.2 224/313] RDMA: Fix double-free in srq creation error flow

From: Jack Morgenstein <jackm@....mellanox.co.il>

commit 3eca7fc2d8d1275d9cf0c709f0937becbfcf6d96 upstream.

The cited commit introduced a double-free of the srq buffer in the error
flow of procedure __uverbs_create_xsrq().

The problem is that ib_destroy_srq_user() called in the error flow also
frees the srq buffer.

Thus, if uverbs_response() fails in __uverbs_create_srq(), the srq buffer
will be freed twice.
