4.19-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 940c620d6af8fca7d115de40f19870fba415efac upstream.
Currently a failed allocation of channel->name leads to an
immediate return without freeing channel. Fix this by setting
ret to -ENOMEM and jumping to an exit path that kfree's channel.
