David Howells f69aecb499 watch_queue: Actually free the watch
[ Upstream commit 3d8dcf278b ]

free_watch() does everything barring actually freeing the watch object.  Fix
this by adding the missing kfree.

kmemleak produces a report something like the following.  Note that as an
address can be seen in the first word, the watch would appear to have gone
through call_rcu().

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
