I think this patch doesn't change a lot since it just refactor the deallocation
ways into unwind ladders while fix a memleak.

I set these pointers to NULL since its clean up function fjes_hw_cleanup
do so. Personally, I tend to following the existing code style in the
same module.

Well, yes, it's a little bit wired that fjes_hw_init doesn't handle
errors of fjes_hw_setup and vzalloc of hw->hw_info.trace as normal
functions do.
Maybe another patch need to be submitted to deal with this problem.
