There was strange error handling logic in case of fw load failure. For
some reason fw loader callback was doing clean up stuff when fw is not
available. I don't see any reason behind doing this. Since this driver
doesn't have EEPROM firmware let's just disconnect it in case of fw load
failure. Doing clean up stuff in 2 different place which can run
concurently is not good idea and syzbot found 2 bugs related to this
strange approach.
So, in this pacth I deleted all clean up code from fw callback and made
a call to device_release_driver() under device_lock(parent) in case of fw
load failure. This approach is more generic and it defend driver from UAF
bugs, since all clean up code is moved to one place.
