elevator: fix double release of elevator module
Our issue is descripted in below call path: ->elevator_init ->elevator_init_fn ->{cfq,deadline,noop}_init_queue ->elevator_alloc ->kzalloc_node fail to call kzalloc_node and then put module in elevator_alloc; fail to call elevator_init_fn and then put module again in elevator_init. Remove elevator_put invoking in error path of elevator_alloc to avoid double release issue.
