If it doesn't WARN() then it's not buggy, but it's still ugly.  We
should not call of_free_opp_table() because we *tried* to add an OPP, we
should only call it if we *succeeded*.

The way the code is written and from your emails I was afraid that if
you tried to call _opp_add_static_v2() and it fails then it leaves
artifacts lying around that need to be cleaned up by the caller.  This
would be the ugliest scenario.  But I looked at _opp_add_static_v2()
and looks fine.  It cleans up properly on failure.  We only need to
clean up if it succeeds.
