Currently when the call to gpiod_to_irq fails the error return
path does not kfree the recently allocated object 'unit'. Fix this
by kfree'ing it before returning.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Resource leak")

Hi Colin

Thanks a lot for the patch. It is definitely a bug.

Wouldn't it be better to swap the order of the resource handling?

1st: gpiod_to_irq
2nd: uvc_alloc_entity

Thanks
