This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves
the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the
results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-
bionic' to 'verification-done-bionic'. If the problem still exists,
change the tag 'verification-needed-bionic' to 'verification-failed-
bionic'.

If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will
be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.

See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how
to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!

Bug description:
  == SRU Justification ==
  Description:  kernel: Fix memory leak on CCA and EP11 CPRB processing.
  Symptom:      Kernel memory not freed when CCA or EP11 CPRB processing fails.
  Problem:      kfree() in code error path missing.
  Solution:     Slight rework of the malloc and free places.
  Reproduction: Run application which sends CCA or EP11 crypto requests
                to the crypto card(s). Now switch the cards offline with
                the help of chzcrypt. Monitor top or free output.
