[PATCH] cpufreq/cpufreq_governor: Fix memory leak in cpufreq_dbs_governor_init

From: Navid Emamdoost
Date: Wed Oct 09 2019 - 19:26:57 EST


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.
