Subject: [PATCH] iio: buffer: Fix memory leak in __iio_buffer_alloc_sysfs_and_mask()

When iio_buffer_wrap_attr() returns NULL or buffer->buffer_group.name alloc
fails, the 'attr' which is allocated in __iio_buffer_alloc_sysfs_and_mask()
is not freed, and cause memory leak.

This patch fix to free it before the error return.
