"pool->name" can be kmalloc()ed or const so we need to free it with
kfree_const().

I also cleaned up the error path in devm_gen_pool_create() a bit.  With
the current code you have to change the kfree() in multiple places
which is bug prone (my first draft of this patch had a bug).

Fixes: e89a70fd54f2 ('genalloc: add support of multiple gen_pools per device')
