Eduardo Valentin 1bfb159673 bridge: mdb: fix leak on complete_info ptr on fail path
We currently get the following kmemleak report:
unreferenced object 0xffff8800039d9820 (size 32):
  comm "softirq", pid 0, jiffies 4295212383 (age 792.416s)
  hex dump (first 32 bytes):

This happens when switchdev_port_obj_add() fails. This patch
frees complete_info object in the fail path.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
