[PATCH v2] HID: memory leak in dualshock4_get_calibration_data

[Eslam Khafagy <eslam.medhat1993@gmail.com>]

function dualshock4_get_calibration_data allocates memory to pointer
buf. however the function may exit prematurely due to transfer_failure
in this case it does not handle freeing memory.

this patch handles memory deallocation at exit.
