[lvc-project] [PATCH] scsi: elx: efct: fix memory leak in efct_hw_parse_filter()

[Vitaliy Shevtsov]

strsep() modifies the address of the pointer passed to it so that it no
longer points to the original address. This means kfree() gets the wrong
pointer.

Fix this by passing unmodified pointer returned from kstrdup() to kfree().

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