[ Upstream commit 8636c5fc7658c7c6299fb8b352d24ea4b9ba99e2 ]
There is a kmemleak when testing the media/i2c/max9286.c with bpf mock
device:

max9286_v4l2_register() calls v4l2_ctrl_new_std(), but won't free the
created v412_ctrl when fwnode_graph_get_endpoint_by_id() failed, which
causes the memleak. Call v4l2_ctrl_handler_free() to free the v412_ctrl.
