hwmon: (acpi_power_meter) clean up freeing code
This code works okay but Smatch flagged it as a double free. I've changed three things to make it more clear. 1) Remove the call to free_capabilities() in acpi_power_meter_add(). This call is a no-op because the capabilities have not been allocated yet. 2) Set "*str" to NULL in free_capabilities() so that way the function can be called twice in a row without leading to a double free. 3) Call free_capabilities() in read_capabilities() instead of open coding the free.
