dm: fix tio leak if clone_bio fails

The patch c80914e81ec5b08fec0bae531e3445268c8820f4 ("dm: return error if 
bio_integrity_clone() fails in clone_bio()") changed the function 
clone_bio so that it can return an error. However, when the error happens, 
the structure dm_target_io is not freed. This patch fixes the code so that 
structure is freed.
