Subject: [PATCH 5.10 288/299] tty: fix memory leak in vc_deallocate

From: Pavel Skripkin <paskripkin@...il.com>

commit 211b4d42b70f1c1660feaa968dac0efc2a96ac4d upstream.

syzbot reported memory leak in tty/vt.
The problem was in VT_DISALLOCATE ioctl cmd.
After allocating unimap with PIO_UNIMAP it wasn't
freed via VT_DISALLOCATE, but vc_cons[currcons].d was
zeroed.
