[PATCH] thermal: core: Fix memory leak in the error path

[Daniel Lezcano]

Fix the following error:

 smatch warnings:
 drivers/thermal/thermal_core.c:1020 __thermal_cooling_device_register() warn: possible memory leak of 'cdev'

by freeing the cdev when exiting the function in the error path.

Fixes: 584837618100 ("thermal/drivers/core: Use a char pointer for the cooling device name")
