Andrey Zhadchenko a87406f4ad openvswitch: fix memory leak at failed datapath creation
ovs_dp_cmd_new()->ovs_dp_change()->ovs_dp_set_upcall_portids()
allocates array via kmalloc.
If for some reason new_vport() fails during ovs_dp_cmd_new()
dp->upcall_portids must be freed.
Add missing kfree.

Kmemleak example:
unreferenced object 0xffff88800c382500 (size 64):
  comm "dump_state", pid 323, jiffies 4294955418 (age 104.347s)
  hex dump (first 32 bytes):

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.
