md: fix problems with freeing private data after ->run failure.
If ->run() fails, it can either free the data structures it allocated, or leave that task to ->free() which will be called on failures. However: md.c calls ->free() even if ->private_data is NULL, which causes problems in some personalities. raid0.c frees the data, but doesn't clear ->private_data, which will become a problem when we fix md.c So better fix both these issues at once.
