From: Fabio Estevam <[email protected]>

3.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

===============

commit 9ecdbed7903921f29adae63a3155814b453e7186 upstream.

'channels' is allocated via kmemdup and it is never freed in the
subsequent error paths.

Use 'indio_dev->channels' directly instead, so that we avoid such
memory leak problem.
