Make sure we free CAN network device in the error path. There are several
jumps to fail label after allocating the CAN network device successfully.
This patch places the free_candev() under fail label so that in failure
path a jump to fail label frees the CAN network device.

Fixes: 76e9353a80e9 ("can: rcar_canfd: Add support for RZ/G2L family")

Yep.

I was tempted for this change, but wanted to keep the changes minimal.
Maybe I'll do it anyway to improve the readability.
