'damon_lru_sort_init()' returns an error when 'damon_select_ops()' fails
without freeing 'ctx' which allocated before.  This commit fixes the
potential memory leak by freeing 'ctx' under the situation.

Commit 40e983cca927 ("mm/damon: introduce DAMON-based LRU-lists
Sorting"), which caused the problem is not in the mainline but
mm-stable.  Please meld this into the commit.

Fixes: 40e983cca927 ("mm/damon: introduce DAMON-based LRU-lists Sorting")
