3.16.75-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Herbert Xu <herbert@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit c8ea9fce2baf7b643384f36f29e4194fa40d33a6 upstream. Sometimes mpi_powm will leak karactx because a memory allocation failure causes a bail-out that skips the freeing of karactx. This patch moves the freeing of karactx to the end of the function like everything else so that it can't be skipped.
