[PATCH] apparmor: fix a memleak in multi_transaction_new()

From: Gaosheng Cui
Date: Mon Aug 22 2022 - 21:15:11 EST


In multi_transaction_new(), the variable t is not freed or passed out
on the failure of copy_from_user(t->data, buf, size), which could lead
to a memleak.

Fix this bug by adding a put_multi_transaction(t) in the error path.
