Subject: [PATCH 5.7 044/477] misc: fastrpc: Fix an incomplete memory release in fastrpc_rpmsg_probe()

From: Srinivas Kandagatla <srinivas.kandagatla@...aro.org>

[ Upstream commit 0978de9fc7335c73934ab8fac189fb4cb3f23191 ]

fastrpc_channel_ctx is not freed if misc_register() fails, this would
lead to a memory leak. Fix this leak by adding kfree in misc_register()
error path.
