team: Fix use-after-free when an option instance allocation fails
commit c12296b upstream. In __team_options_register, team_options are allocated and appended to the team's option_list. If one option instance allocation fails, the "inst_rollback" cleanup path frees the previously allocated options but doesn't remove them from the team's option_list. This leaves dangling pointers that can be dereferenced later by other parts of the team driver that iterate over options. This patch fixes the cleanup path to remove the dangling pointers from the list. As far as I can tell, this uaf doesn't have much security implications since it would be fairly hard to exploit (an attacker would need to make the allocation of that specific small object fail) but it's still nice to fix.
