Subject: crypto: inside-secure - free requests even if their handling failed
From: "Antoine Ténart" <antoine.tenart@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 0a02dcca126280595950f3ea809f77c9cb0a235c ]
This patch frees the request private data even if its handling failed,
as it would never be freed otherwise.
