My local syzbot instance hit a memory leak in
cinergyt2_frontend_attach() [1].

The problem was in non-freed dvb_frontend in case of error.
If dvb_usb_generic_rw() call fails, an error will be returned from
cinergyt2_frontend_attach() [1] and num_adapters_initialized of
dvb_usb_device won't be incremented. That means dvb usb library
won't take care of freeing allocated frontend.

Fail log:

This issue is already fixed by:

9ad1efee086e0 media: dvd_usb: memory leak in cinergyt2_fe_attach

Thanks for reporting and making a patch though.
