For WQ_UNBOUND workqueues, alloc_and_link_pwqs() allocates wq->cpu_pwq
via alloc_percpu() and then calls apply_workqueue_attrs_locked(). On
failure it returns the error directly, bypassing the enomem: label
which holds the only free_percpu(wq->cpu_pwq) in this function.
The caller's error path kfree()s wq without touching wq->cpu_pwq,
leaking one percpu pointer table (nr_cpu_ids * sizeof(void *) bytes) per
failed call.
If kmemleak is enabled, we can see:
unreferenced object (percpu) 0xc0fffa5b121048 (size 8):
comm "insmod", pid 776, jiffies
4294682844
backtrace (crc 0):
pcpu_alloc_noprof+0x665/0xac0
__alloc_workqueue+0x33f/0xa20
alloc_workqueue_noprof+0x60/0x100
Route the error through the existing enomem: cleanup and any error
before this one.
