John Einar Reitan af1eddcc17 Revert "ipmi_si: fix memory leak on new_smi" 
This reverts commit c97e41076a, which
incorrectly was taken from upstream c0a32fe13c.

The referenced memory leak doesn't exist on the 4.14 stable branch as
the new logic of doing the kzalloc hasn't moved to this function.
By adding this kfree we actually end up doing double kfree as all callers of
smi_add does a kfree on error.

Sample with SLAB_FREELIST_HARDENED=y:

ipmi_si: Adding ACPI-specified kcs state machine
IPMI System Interface driver.
ipmi_si: probing via SPMI
ipmi_si: SPMI: io 0xca2 regsize 1 spacing 1 irq 0
(NULL device *): SPMI-specified kcs state machine: duplicate

README 

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
