[lvc-project] [PATCH] net: qrtr: free memory on error path in radix_tree_insert()

Function radix_tree_insert() returns errors if the node hasn't
been initialized and added to the tree.

"kfree(node)" and return value "NULL" of node_get() help
to avoid using unclear node in other calls.

Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.
