The error path of uncore_type_init() frees up any allocations that were made
along the way, but it relies upon type->pmus being set, which only happens
if the function succeeds. As type->pmus remains null in this case, the call
to uncore_type_exit will do nothing.

Moving the assignment earlier will allow us to actually free those allocations
should something go awry.
