Ido Schimmel 06bf629441 vxlan: Fix memory leaks in error path
The memory allocated by vxlan_vnigroup_init() is not freed in the error
path, leading to memory leaks [1]. Fix by calling
vxlan_vnigroup_uninit() in the error path.

The leaks can be reproduced by annotating gro_cells_init() with
ALLOW_ERROR_INJECTION() and then running:

 # echo "100" > /sys/kernel/debug/fail_function/probability
 # echo "1" > /sys/kernel/debug/fail_function/times
 # echo "gro_cells_init" > /sys/kernel/debug/fail_function/inject
 # printf %#x -12 > /sys/kernel/debug/fail_function/gro_cells_init/retval
 # ip link add name vxlan0 type vxlan dstport 4789 external vnifilter

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.
