Subject: [PATCH] uio_hv_generic: Fix another memory leak in error handling
 paths

Memory allocated by 'vmbus_alloc_ring()' at the beginning of the probe
function is never freed in the error handling path.

Add the missing 'vmbus_free_ring()' call.

Note that it is already freed in the .remove function.
