From: Jia-Ju Bai <***@163.com>

The memory allocated by kzalloc in b43_bus_dev_ssb_init and
b43_bus_dev_bcma_init is not freed.
This patch fixes the bug by adding kfree in b43_ssb_remove,
b43_bcma_remove and error handling code of b43_bcma_probe.

Thanks Michael for his suggestion.

This patch fixes the bug by adding kfree in b43_ssb_remove,
b43_bcma_remove and error handling code of b43_bcma_probe.
Thanks Michael for his suggestion.
If no objections I'm planning to queue this to 4.6-rc2.
