Subject: [PATCH] net: openvswitch: fix flow memory leak in ovs_flow_cmd_new

Syzkaller reports a memory leak of new_flow in ovs_flow_cmd_new() as it is
not freed when an allocation of a key fails.

BUG: memory leak
unreferenced object 0xffff888116668000 (size 632):
  comm "syz-executor231", pid 1090, jiffies 4294844701 (age 18.871s)

To fix this the patch removes unnecessary err_kfree_key label and adds a
proper goto statement on the key-allocation-error path.

Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with Syzkaller.
