Subject: [RFC PATCH 4/4] workqueue: simplify the apply_workqueue_attrs_locked function.

if the apply_wqattrs_prepare function return NULL, in its implement, it has already
clear up the related resource, so, it can return failed directly, to avoid to call
the clean up function again.

this doesn't introduce any functional changes, just a suggestion.
