Zheng Qixing c0fbc9593b ata: libata: Fix memory leak for error path in ata_host_alloc() ...

commit 284b75a3d8 upstream.

In ata_host_alloc(), if devres_alloc() fails to allocate the device host
resource data pointer, the already allocated ata_host structure is not
freed before returning from the function. This results in a potential
memory leak.

Call kfree(host) before jumping to the error handling path to ensure
that the ata_host structure is properly freed if devres_alloc() fails.
