[PATCH v3 3/6] iio: light: hid-sensor-als.c: Fix memory leak in probe()

[Fabio Estevam <festevam@gmail.com>]

From: Fabio Estevam <fabio.estevam@freescale.com>

'channels' is allocated via kmemdup and it is never freed in the
subsequent error paths.

Use 'indio_dev->channels' directly instead, so that we avoid such
memory leak problem.

Signed-off-by: Fabio Estevam <fabio.estevam@freescale.com>
---
Build-tested only.

Changes since v2:
- None
Changes since v1:
- Make clear in the commit log that the proble only occurs in the error
paths
