CVE-2019-19061

[Impact]
A memory leak in adis16400 IIO IMU driver could cause excessive memory
usage via the IIO interface.

[Fix]
Upstream commit 9c0530e898f384c5d279bfcebd8bb17af1105873 with
adjustement: it applies to drivers/iio/imu/adis16400_buffer.c instead of
drivers/iio/imu/adis_buffer.c (because later that code was moved from
adis16400_buffer.c to adis_buffer.c).

[Test Case]
None.

[Regression Potential]
Patch touches error path for memory allocation failure so that code
won't be called too much.
Exact backport is also in linux-4.19.y commit
c57c213538156bff971aa352d9d7749196dfbfd8.

Best regards,
Krzysztof
