Subject: [PATCH 5.6 01/41] devinet: fix memleak in inetdev_init()

From: Yang Yingliang <yangyingliang@...wei.com>

[ Upstream commit 1b49cd71b52403822731dc9f283185d1da355f97 ]

When devinet_sysctl_register() failed, the memory allocated
in neigh_parms_alloc() should be freed.

Fixes: 20e61da7ffcf ("ipv4: fail early when creating netdev named all or default")
