net: phylink: put link_gpio if phylink_create fails

In phylink_create() if phylink_register_sfp() returns an error, link_gpio
obtained by phylink_parse_fixedlink() is never released. While this is a
very unlikely scenario, it's worth to fix/handle this.

This was present from the very first implementation of phylink but got
relevant only with the introduction of ce0aa27ff3f6 ("sfp: add sfp-bus to
bridge between network devices and sfp cages") where additional function
were added after phylink_parse_fixedlink() making the release of link_gpio
needed if such additional function errored out.

While at it, restructure the exit condition of phylink_create() with the
goto pattern to reduce code duplication on handling error conditions.

Fixes: ce0aa27ff3f6 ("sfp: add sfp-bus to bridge between network devices and sfp cages")
