caldata is not being free'd on the error exit path, causing
a memory leak. kfree it to fix the leak.

I don't think we should free data at all:

static int ath10k_download_cal_eeprom(struct ath10k *ar)
{
	size_t data_len;
	void *data = NULL;
	int ret;

	ret = ath10k_hif_fetch_cal_eeprom(ar, &data, &data_len);

Instead we should free only caldata, right?

Yep, good catch, I'll send V2 later.
