[PATCH] drm/imagination: Fixed oops when misusing ioctl CREATE_HWRT_DATASET

While writing the matching IGT suite I discovered that it's possible to
cause a kernel oops when using DRM_IOCTL_PVR_CREATE_HWRT_DATASET when
the call to hwrt_init_common_fw_structure() fails.

Use an unwind-type error path to avoid cleaning up the object using the
the release function before it is fully resolved.
