The kfree() function was called in two cases by
the bpf_struct_ops_link_create() function during error handling
even if the passed variable contained a null pointer.
This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.

* Thus use another label.

* Reorder function calls at the end.

* Delete an initialisation (for the variable “link”)
  which became unnecessary with this refactoring.
