commit 93900337b9ac2f4eca427eff6d187be2dc3b5551 upstream.
create_cpu_loop() calls smu_sat_get_sdb_partition() which does
kmalloc() and returns the allocated buffer. In fact it's called twice,
and neither buffer is freed.
This results in a memory leak as reported by Erhard:

Fix it by rearranging the logic so we deal with each buffer
separately, which then makes it easy to free the buffer once we're
done with it.
