[PATCH 2/2] rcu: trace fix possible mem-leak

[Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>]

[-- Attachment #1: rcu-trace-fix-free.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1056 bytes --]

In the initialization of the RCU trace module, if
rcupreempt_debugfs_init() fails, we never free the the trace buffer.

This patch frees the trace buffer in case the debugfs fails.
