Diksha KumariandSasha Levin a968c6a396 staging: rtl8723bs: fix memory leak on failure path
[ Upstream commit abe850d82c ]

cfg80211_inform_bss_frame() may return NULL on failure. In that case,
the allocated buffer 'buf' is not freed and the function returns early,
leading to potential memory leak.
Fix this by ensuring that 'buf' is freed on both success and failure paths.
