CVE-2022-49741

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

fbdev: smscufx: fix error handling code in ufx_usb_probe

The current error handling code in ufx_usb_probe have many unmatching issues, e.g., missing ufx_free_usb_list, destroy_modedb label should only include framebuffer_release, fb_dealloc_cmap only matches fb_alloc_cmap.

My local syzkaller reports a memory leak bug:

Fix this bug by rewriting the error handling code in ufx_usb_probe.
