In uvc_ioctl_ctrl_map() implementation, there is a possibility of memory
leak if control id name is not listed and kmemdup() is failed somehow.
This is a rare scenario but possible.

Hi Ameer

Thanks for the patch.

It is already covered by
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210917114930.47261-1-colin.king@canonical.com/
which is in the staging branch of the media tree.

Thanks!
