4.20-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Herbert Xu <herb...@gondor.apana.org.au>
commit 4ff3a9d14c6c06eaa4e5976c61599ea2bd9e81b2 upstream.
When rhashtable insertion fails the mesh table code doesn't free
the now-orphan mesh path object. This patch fixes that.
