Subject: [PATCH 4.19 017/639] ipmi: Fix memory leak in __ipmi_bmc_register

From: Navid Emamdoost <navid.emamdoost@...il.com>

commit 4aa7afb0ee20a97fbf0c5bab3df028d5fb85fdab upstream.

In the impelementation of __ipmi_bmc_register() the allocated memory for
bmc should be released in case ida_simple_get() fails.
