md: Fix failed allocation of md_register_thread commit e406f12dde1a8375d77ea02d91f313fb1a9c6aec upstream. mddev->sync_thread can be set to NULL on kzalloc failure downstream. The patch checks for such a scenario and frees allocated resources. Committer node: Added similar fix to raid5.c, as suggested by Guoqing.
