Subject: [PATCH] binder: fix memory leak of spamming work

A transaction complete work is allocated and queued for each
transaction. Under certain conditions the work->type might be marked as
BINDER_WORK_TRANSACTION_ONEWAY_SPAM_SUSPECT to notify userspace about
potential spamming threads.

However, this work->type is not being handled in binder_release_work()
so it will leak during a clean up. This was reported by syzkaller with
the following kmemleak dump:

BUG: memory leak

Fix the leak by kfreeing this work in binder_release_work().
