In wacom_wac_queue_flush() the code allocates zero initialised buffer which it uses as a storage buffer for copying data from a fifo via kfifo_out(). The kfifo_out() function returns the number of elements it has copied. The code checks if the number of copied elements does not equal the size of the fifo record, if it does not it simply skips the entry and continues to the next iteration. However it does not release the storage buffer leading to a memory leak. Fix the memory leak by freeing the buffer on size mismatch.
