Subject: [PATCH 5.16 0304/1039] usb: ftdi-elan: fix memory leak on device disconnect

From: Wei Yongjun <weiyongjun1@...wei.com>

[ Upstream commit 1646566b5e0c556f779180a8514e521ac735de1e ]

'ftdi' is alloced when probe device, but not free on device disconnect,
this cause a memory leak as follows:

unreferenced object 0xffff88800d584000 (size 8400):
  comm "kworker/0:2", pid 3809, jiffies 4295453055 (age 13.784s)
  hex dump (first 32 bytes):
    00 40 58 0d 80 88 ff ff 00 40 58 0d 80 88 ff ff  .@.......@......
    00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ad 4e ad de  .............N..
  backtrace:

    [<000000003c2c9579>] driver_probe_device+0x4e/0x140 drivers/base/dd.c:781

Fix it by freeing 'ftdi' after nobody use it.
