misc: fastrpc: Fix double free of 'buf' in error path

Type: advisorySources: OSV

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: misc: fastrpc: Fix double free of 'buf' in error path smatch warning: drivers/misc/fastrpc.c:1926 fastrpc_req_mmap() error: double free of 'buf' In fastrpc_req_mmap() error path, the fastrpc buffer is freed in fastrpc_req_munmap_impl() if unmap is successful. But in the end, there is an unconditional call to fastrpc_buf_free(). So the above case triggers the double free of fastrpc buf.
