In the implementation of cpufreq_dbs_governor_init(), dbs_data is
allocated and later is assigned to governor_data. But before that
assignment, if gov->init() fails this allocation is not released.
dbs_data should be released in case if gov->init() failure.
Fixes: 714a2d9c8792 ("cpufreq: governor: split cpufreq_governor_dbs()")

Maybe add another label right before kfree() at the bottom and jump there
instead. We wanted to share code in the error path.
