Subject: [PATCH net 6/9] sch_fq_codel: avoid double free on init failure

It is very unlikely to happen but the backlogs memory allocation
could fail and will free q->flows, but then ->destroy() will free
q->flows too. For correctness remove the first free and let ->destroy
clean up.

Fixes: 87b60cfacf9f ("net_sched: fix error recovery at qdisc creation")
