'damon_lru_sort_init()' returns an error when 'damon_select_ops()' fails without freeing 'ctx' which allocated before. This commit fixes the potential memory leak by freeing 'ctx' under the situation. Commit 40e983cca927 ("mm/damon: introduce DAMON-based LRU-lists Sorting"), which caused the problem is not in the mainline but mm-stable. Please meld this into the commit.
