4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Alexey Klimov <klimov.linux@xxxxxxxxx> commit 647024a7df36014bbc4479d92d88e6b77c0afcf6 upstream. udriver struct allocated by kzalloc() will not be freed if usb_register() and next calls fail. This patch fixes this by adding one more step with kfree(udriver) in error path.
