block: Fix memory leak in rw_copy_check_uvector() handling
Fix a memory leak in the error handling path of function sg_io() that is used during the processing of scsi ioctl. Memory already allocated by rw_copy_check_uvector() needs to be freed correctly. Detected by Coverity: CID 1128953. Signed-off-by: Christian Engelmayer <cengelma@gmx.at> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
