Subject: [PATCH 5.4 18/50] um: virtio_uml: fix memory leak on init failures

From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@...el.com>

commit 7ad28e0df7ee9dbcb793bb88dd81d4d22bb9a10e upstream.

If initialization fails, e.g. because the connection failed,
we leak the 'vu_dev'. Fix that. Reported by smatch.

Fixes: 5d38f324993f ("um: drivers: Add virtio vhost-user driver")
