    ubi: Fix unreferenced object reported by kmemleak in ubi_resize_volume()
    
    [ Upstream commit 1e591ea072df7211f64542a09482b5f81cb3ad27 ]
    
    There is a memory leaks problem reported by kmemleak:
    
    unreferenced object 0xffff888102007a00 (size 128):
      comm "ubirsvol", pid 32090, jiffies 4298464136 (age 2361.231s)
      hex dump (first 32 bytes):

    This is due to a mismatch between create and destroy interfaces, and
    in detail that "new_eba_tbl" created by ubi_eba_create_table() but
    destroyed by kfree(), while will causing "new_eba_tbl->entries" not
    freed.
    
    Fix it by replacing kfree(new_eba_tbl) with
    ubi_eba_destroy_table(new_eba_tbl)
