[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH 14/19] avfilter/af_amerge: Fix segfault upon allocation failure

The amerge filter uses a variable number of inpads and allocates them
in its init function; if all goes well, the number of inpads coincides
with a number stored in the filter's private context. Yet if allocating a
subsequent inpad fails, the uninit function nevertheless uses the number
stored in the private context to determine the number of inpads to free
and not the AVFilterContext's nb_inputs. This will lead to an access
beyond the end of the allocated AVFilterContext.input_pads array and
an invalid free.
