Subject[PATCH] consolemap: Fix a memory leaking bug in drivers/tty/vt/consolemap.c
In function con_insert_unipair(), when allocation for p2 and p1[n]
fails, ENOMEM is returned, but previously allocated p1 is not freed,
remains as leaking memory. Thus we should free p1 as well when this
allocation fails.
