net/sched: act_police: fix memory leak in case of invalid control action

when users set an invalid control action, kmemleak complains as follows:

 # echo clear >/sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak
 # ./tdc.py -e b48b
 Test b48b: Add police action with exceed goto chain control action
 All test results:

 1..1
 ok 1 - b48b # Add police action with exceed goto chain control action
 about to flush the tap output if tests need to be skipped
 done flushing skipped test tap output
 # echo scan >/sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak

change tcf_police_init() to avoid leaking 'new' in case TCA_POLICE_RESULT
contains TC_ACT_GOTO_CHAIN extended action.
