PTP pin structs are allocated early in probe, but never cleaned up.
Fix this by calling i40e_ptp_free_pins in the error path.
To support this, i40e_ptp_free_pins is added to the header and
pin_config is correctly nullified after being freed.
This has been an issue since i40e_ptp_alloc_pins was introduced.
Fixes: 1050713026a08 ("i40e: add support for PTP external synchronization clock")

Dear Matt,
Thank you for the patch. Should you resend you could spell the verb
*clean up* with a space:
> i40e: Clean PTP pins up on probe failure
or
> i40e: Clean up PTP pins on probe failure
But it’s not important.
