Subject: drm/msm: fix leak in failed get_pages
From: Prakash Kamliya <pkamliya@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 62e3a3e342af3c313ab38603811ecdb1fcc79edb ]
get_pages doesn't keep a reference of the pages allocated
when it fails later in the code path. This can lead to
a memory leak. Keep reference of the allocated pages so
that it can be freed when msm_gem_free_object gets called
later during cleanup.
