From: Zumeng Chen <zumeng.chen@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit ba2ffc96321c8433606ceeb85c9e722b8113e5a7 ]

Release fw_status, raw_fw_status, and tx_res_if when wl12xx_fetch_firmware
failed instead of meaningless goto out to avoid the following memory leak
reports(Only the last one listed):

unreferenced object 0xc28a9a00 (size 512):
