[PATCH v3 02/19] selftests/resctrl: Don't leak buffer in fill_cache()

["Ilpo Järvinen" <ilpo.jarvinen@linux.intel.com>]

The error path in fill_cache() does return before the allocated buffer
is freed leaking the buffer.

The leak was introduced when fill_cache_read() started to return errors
in c7b607fa9325 ("selftests/resctrl: Fix null pointer dereference on
open failed"), before that both fill functions always returned 0.

Move free() earlier to prevent the mem leak.

Fixes: c7b607fa9325 ("selftests/resctrl: Fix null pointer dereference on open failed")
