commit bb509a6ffed2c8b0950f637ab5779aa818ed1596 upstream.
`compat_insnlist()` handles the 32-bit version of the `COMEDI_INSNLIST` ioctl (whenwhen `CONFIG_COMPAT` is enabled). It allocates memory to temporarily hold an array of `struct comedi_insn` converted from the 32-bit version in user space. This memory is only being freed if there is a fault while filling the array, otherwise it is leaked.
Add a call to `kfree()` to fix the leak.
