[ Upstream commit d549107305b4634c81223a853701c06bcf657bc3 ]

I got memory leak as follows when doing fault injection test:

unreferenced object 0xffff88810a2ddc00 (size 512):
  comm "kworker/6:1", pid 176, jiffies 4295009893 (age 757.220s)

cardp is missing being freed in the error handling path of the probe
and the path of the disconnect, which will cause memory leak.

This patch adds the missing kfree().
