Subsequent patches will add memory allocations in br_mdb_config_init() as the MDB configuration structure will include a linked list of source entries. This memory will need to be freed regardless if br_mdb_add() succeeded or failed. As a preparation for this change, add a centralized error path where the memory will be freed. Note that br_mdb_del() already has one error path and therefore does not require any changes.
