From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> There two callers of stv090x_setup_compound manage the allocation and freeing if state there is an error condition from stv090x_setup_compound. Currently function stv090x_setup_compound also frees the state object too, leading to a double free in the callers of this function. Fix this by removing the extraneous free in stv090x_setup_compound and just leave the callers handle the allocation/free'ing.
