Subject: [PATCH 03/12] staging: rtl8712: fix potential memory leak in r8712_init_drv_sw()

From: Xiaoke Wang <xkernel.wang@...mail.com>

In r8712_init_drv_sw(), there are various error paths do not properly
release the previous allocated resources but directly return the error
status, which leads to various memory leaks.

To properly release the resources, this patch unifies the error handler
of r8712_init_drv_sw().
According to the allocation sequence, if the init function returns
failure, it will jump to the corresponding error tag.
