On an allocation failure of gd, the current exit path is via out_free_devt
which leaves sdpk still allocated and hence it gets leaked. Fix this by
correcting the order of resource free'ing with a change in the error exit
path labels.

Hello Colin,

This patch looks fine to me. But since it is a fix for a patch that exists
in Jens' tree and that is not yet upstream, please resubmit it to Jens.
