Subject: [PATCH mm-unstable 1/2] mm/damon/sysfs-schemes: Fix leaking a filter for wrong cgroup path

Commit f36f860207efa ("mm/damon/sysfs-schemes: implement scheme
filters") on mm-unstable introduced 'damon_syfs_set_scheme_filters()',
which does not free newly allocated filter when it fails setting memcg
id for the filter.  As a result, the memory for the filter leaks.  Fix
it by freeing the filter before returning the error.
