media: dvb-core: fix a memory leak bug
In dvb_create_media_entity(), 'dvbdev->entity' is allocated through kzalloc(). Then, 'dvbdev->pads' is allocated through kcalloc(). However, if kcalloc() fails, the allocated 'dvbdev->entity' is not deallocated, leading to a memory leak bug. To fix this issue, free 'dvbdev->entity' before returning -ENOMEM.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. 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.
