[ Upstream commit 5ae890780e1b4d08f2c0c5d4ea96fc3928fc0ee9 ]
Currently the call to cdev_add is missing a check for failure. Fix this by
checking for failure and exiting via a new error path that ensures the
allocated comp_channel struct is kfree'd.

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.
