Subject[PATCH] comedi: Fix potential memory leak in comedi_init()
Date
comedi_init() will goto out_unregister_chrdev_region if cdev_add()
failed, which won't free the resource alloced in kobject_set_name().
Call kfree_const() to free the leaked name before goto
out_unregister_chrdev_region.

unreferenced object 0xffff8881000fa8c0 (size 8):
comm "modprobe", pid 239, jiffies 4294905173 (age 51.308s)
hex dump (first 8 bytes):
63 6f 6d 65 64 69 00 ff comedi..
