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.

One minor thing that I forgot: I see that the commit message is all lower case. Proper capitalisation helps readability and matches the kernel style. No need to resend this time, but in case you're sending a v3 for any other reason, it'd be great if you picked this up as well :)
Thanks for your patch!welcome
