Subject: [PATCH 4.9 071/116] ubi: Fix an error pointer dereference in error handling code

From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@...cle.com>

commit 5d3805af279c93ef49a64701f35254676d709622 upstream.

If "seen_pebs = init_seen(ubi);" fails then "seen_pebs" is an error pointer
and we try to kfree() it which results in an Oops.

This patch re-arranges the error handling so now it only frees things
which have been allocated successfully.

Fixes: daef3dd1f0ae ("UBI: Fastmap: Add self check to detect absent PEBs")
