A recent cleanup introduced a potential dereference of -EFAULT when we
call kfree(map->menu_info).

Fixes: 4cc5bed1caeb ("[media] uvcvideo: Use memdup_user() rather than duplicating its implementation")

Did your update suggestion become also relevant just because the corresponding
update step “[PATCH 2/2] uvc_v4l2: One function call less in uvc_ioctl_ctrl_map()
after error detection” which I offered as another change possibility on 2016-08-19
was rejected on 2016-11-22?
