--------------------------------

commit 8f9dcc29 upstream.

The following is from a system that went OOM due to a memory leak:

wlan0: Allocated STA 74:83:c2:64:0b:87
wlan0: Allocated STA 74:83:c2:64:0b:87
wlan0: IBSS finish 74:83:c2:64:0b:87 (---from ieee80211_ibss_add_sta)
wlan0: Adding new IBSS station 74:83:c2:64:0b:87
wlan0: moving STA 74:83:c2:64:0b:87 to state 2
wlan0: moving STA 74:83:c2:64:0b:87 to state 3
wlan0: Inserted STA 74:83:c2:64:0b:87
wlan0: IBSS finish 74:83:c2:64:0b:87 (---from ieee80211_ibss_work)
wlan0: Adding new IBSS station 74:83:c2:64:0b:87
wlan0: moving STA 74:83:c2:64:0b:87 to state 2
wlan0: moving STA 74:83:c2:64:0b:87 to state 3
.
.
wlan0: expiring inactive not authorized STA 74:83:c2:64:0b:87
wlan0: moving STA 74:83:c2:64:0b:87 to state 2
wlan0: moving STA 74:83:c2:64:0b:87 to state 1
wlan0: Removed STA 74:83:c2:64:0b:87
wlan0: Destroyed STA 74:83:c2:64:0b:87

The ieee80211_ibss_finish_sta() is called twice on the same STA from 2
different locations. On the second attempt, the allocated STA is not
destroyed creating a kernel memory leak.

This is happening because sta_info_insert_finish() does not call
sta_info_free() the second time when the STA already exists (returns
-EEXIST). Note that the caller sta_info_insert_rcu() assumes STA is
destroyed upon errors.

Same fix is applied to -ENOMEM.
