Subject: ath10k: fix potential memory leak in ath10k_wmi_tlv_op_pull_fw_stats()

From: Christian Lamparter <chunkeey@googlemail.com>


[ Upstream commit 097e46d2ae90265d1afe141ba6208ba598b79e01 ]

ath10k_wmi_tlv_op_pull_fw_stats() uses tb = ath10k_wmi_tlv_parse_alloc(...)
function, which allocates memory. If any of the three error-paths are
taken, this tb needs to be freed.
