[ Upstream commit 84ecc2f6eb1cb12e6d44818f94fa49b50f06e6ac ]

In function con_insert_unipair(), when allocation for p2 and p1[n]
fails, ENOMEM is returned, but previously allocated p1 is not freed,
remains as leaking memory. Thus we should free p1 as well when this
allocation fails.

No, please do not take this patch, it was reverted in commit
15b3cd8ef46a ("Revert "consolemap: Fix a memory leaking bug in
drivers/tty/vt/consolemap.c"") because it was broken.

Please drop from all of the autosel queues.

Now dropped, thanks!
