This is done in order to write lesser code. Otherwise we need
something like this:

diff --git a/drivers/base/power/opp.c b/drivers/base/power/opp.c

To some people, this will look even more *ugly*. And so I just called
free_table() on error.

No. The problem is that we are trying to add OPPs in a while loop and
on failure we need to free all we added earlier.
