There was a back port of upstream 4.4 stable commit 20cbe9a3aa2e341824da57ce0ac6d52cbffaa570
to Xenial which failed remove a kfree() from release_ds_buffer().    

This commit does only that.  It removes this extra kfree().  This left over 
kfree was causing a kernel trace on many systems as reported in the bug.

This commit removes the kfree() like it should have been in the original commit.
