Subject: [PATCH] media: uvcvideo: Fix a memory leak in error handling code in 'uvc_gpio_parse()'

Memory allocated in 'uvc_alloc_entity()' should be freed if an error
occurs after it.

Reorder the code in order to avoid the leak.

Fixes: 2886477ff987 ("media: uvcvideo: Implement UVC_EXT_GPIO_UNIT")
