Replace kfree() with em_table_free() for error path of em_create_pd()
to ensure proper cleanup of energy model tables. The em_table_free()
function provides the correct deallocation mechanism for energy model
table structures, ensuring consistent memory management throughout the
energy model subsystem.

I guess this could carry the fixes tag as well.

It was already discussed with NACK, which still holds.
