Well, if bind() returns an error code, composite calls
usb_ep_autoconfig_reset() anyway, so manual endpoint releasing in error
path isn't necessary. We can compare the way it works with devm_*
functions family - you don't need to care about resource lifetime as
it's managed for you.
The function f_sourcesink is a bit different, because it can work with
two different endpoint configurations {bulk-in, bulk-out} or {bulk-in,
bulk-out, iso-in, iso-out}. When bulk endpoints are obtained
successfully it tries to get iso endpoints, but if one if them is not
available it releases previously obtained iso and ends with success. In
such case it simply starts in bulk-only configuration.
