From: Todd Kjos <tkjos@xxxxxxxxxxx> commit 1909a671dbc3606685b1daf8b22a16f65ea7edda upstream. syzkallar found a 32-byte memory leak in a rarely executed error case. The transaction complete work item was not freed if put_user() failed when writing the BR_TRANSACTION_COMPLETE to the user command buffer. Fixed by freeing it before put_user() is called.
