Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception

---[ end Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception ]---
It is because previous patch added kobject_put() to release the memory
which will call dmi_sysfs_entry_release() and list_del().
However, list_add_tail(entry->list) is called after the error block,
so the list_head is uninitialized and cannot be deleted.
Move error handling to after list_add_tail to fix this.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
