From: Fabio Estevam <fabio.estevam@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
'channels' is allocated via kmemdup and it is never freed in the
subsequent error paths.
Use 'indio_dev->channels' directly instead, so that we avoid such
memory leak problem.

Build-tested only.
Changes since v2:
- None
Changes since v1:
- Make clear in the commit log that the proble only occurs in the error
paths
