Subject: [media] s5p-mfc: fix failure path of s5p_mfc_alloc_memdev()

From: Marek Szyprowski <m.szyprowski@samsung.com>

commit 3467c9a7e7f9209a9ecd8f9db65b04a323a13932 upstream.

s5p_mfc_alloc_memdev() function lacks proper releasing
of allocated device in case of reserved memory initialization
failure. This results in NULL pointer dereference:
