[PATCH -next] mwifiex: fix possible memory leak in mwifiex_cfg80211_start_ap()

[weiyj_lk@xxxxxxx]

From: Wei Yongjun <yongjun_wei@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

memory is malloced in mwifiex_cfg80211_start_ap() and should be
freed before leaving from the error handling cases, otherwise it
will cause memory leak.
