Description: [media] hdpvr: Fix an error handling path in hdpvr_probe()
References:
 https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9966135/
Notes:
 bwh> I believe this CVE is for passing a zeroed work_struct to
 bwh> flush_work(), leading to an oops (denial of service).  That
 bwh> was introduced in 4.8 by commit 5612e191ca1f "[media] hdpvr:
 bwh> Remove deprecated create_singlethread_workqueue".  The patch
 bwh> fixing this also fixes memory leaks on the failure path which
 bwh> have been present for much longer.
