Subject: crypto: lrw - Fix an error handling path in 'create()'
From: Christophe Jaillet <christophe.jaillet@xxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 616129cc6e75fb4da6681c16c981fa82dfe5e4c7 ]
All error handling paths 'goto err_drop_spawn' except this one.
In order to avoid some resources leak, we should do it as well here.
