Subject: [PATCH] PCI: hv: Use kfree(hbus) in hv_pci_probe()'s error handling path

Now that we use kzalloc() to allocate the hbus buffer, we should use
kfree() in the error path as well.

Also remove the type casting, since it's unnecessary in C.

Fixes: 877b911a5ba0 ("PCI: hv: Avoid a kmemleak false positive caused by the hbus buffer")

Sorry for missing the error handling path.

Two unrelated logical changes -> two patches please, I know it is
tempting but it is important to split logical changes into separate
patches.

Thanks,

Ok, will post 2 separate patches shortly.

Thanks,
