Yuan Can bebd60ec3b drm/vkms: Fix memory leak in vkms_init() 
[ Upstream commit 0d0b368b9d ]

A memory leak was reported after the vkms module install failed.

unreferenced object 0xffff88810bc28520 (size 16):
  comm "modprobe", pid 9662, jiffies 4298009455 (age 42.590s)
  hex dump (first 16 bytes):
    01 01 00 64 81 88 ff ff 00 00 dc 0a 81 88 ff ff  ...d............
  backtrace:
    [<00000000e7561ff8>] kmalloc_trace+0x27/0x60

    [<000000008fc6fcde>] entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x46/0xb0

The reason is that the vkms_init() returns without checking the return
value of vkms_create(), and if the vkms_create() failed, the config
allocated at the beginning of vkms_init() is leaked.

 vkms_init()
   config = kmalloc(...) # config allocated
   ...
   return vkms_create() # vkms_create failed and config is leaked

Fix this problem by checking return value of vkms_create() and free the
config if error happened.

README 

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

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

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.
