If an error occurs, 'mlx4_en_destroy_netdev()' is called.
It then calls 'mlx4_en_free_resources()' which does the needed resources
cleanup.
So, doing some explicit kfree in the error handling path would lead to
some double kfree.
Simplify code to avoid such a case.

v1 -> v2 : rewrite the fix as explained by Tariq Toukan
(this 2nd version may have been posted twice, once without the
v2 tag. PLease ignore the first one)
