PATCH 1/2 target: remove an unused variable

We never use "fabric_cg" and also we leak it on the success path.

We never use "fabric_cg" and also we leak it on the success path.

Hi Dan,

Thanks for catching this left over allocation from v3.x days before target_core_register_fabric() accepted the fabric module's top level struct config_group.

Committed as 7e7d89f6cf into lio-core-2.6.git.

Best Regards,

--nab
