Commit d2be00c0fb5a ("of/pci: Free resources on failure in
of_pci_get_host_bridge_resources()") fixed the error code path in
of_pci_get_host_bridge_resources() by adding code that runs through the
resources list to free all resources in it and then calls kfree on the
bus_range resource pointer to complete the memory deallocation.
Since the bus_range resource is added to the resources list through
pci_add_resource, the resource_list_for_each_entry loop in the error
exit path frees it already and freeing it anew could trigger a double
free, hence this patch removes the superfluos kfree call on the bus_range
resource.

I applied this to for-linus, and will ask Linus to put it in before
v3.20-rc1, thanks!

Rafael, I applied d2be00c0fb5a, where the bug originally came from, but I
see that you fixed it with 5c493df25a0d and the fix got lost because of an
incorrect merge resolution.  So if you'd rather take this, just let me
know.

That really should go through your tree I think.  I attempted to fix it, but
failed to do that correctly, so effectively that doesn't count ...
