My bad. We should clean this up if registration fails. As we don't
support unregistering PMUs, that should be the only case where we'll
need to free this.

I'll wrap that up in a new cpu_pmu_destroy function, which we can also
use to tear down the notifier introduced in the next patch.

Thanks,
Mark.
