When video_register_device() fails in msi2500_probe(), the error path
jumps to err_unregister_v4l2_dev, which skips the call to
v4l2_ctrl_handler_free(). This leaks memory allocated by
v4l2_ctrl_handler_init() and v4l2_ctrl_add_handler().
Fix this by jumping to err_free_controls instead, which properly frees
the control handler before unregistering the v4l2 device.
