    nfc: fix memory leak of se_io context in nfc_genl_se_io
    
    [ Upstream commit 25ff6f8a5a3b8dc48e8abda6f013e8cc4b14ffea ]
    
    The callback context for sending/receiving APDUs to/from the selected
    secure element is allocated inside nfc_genl_se_io and supposed to be
    eventually freed in se_io_cb callback function. However, there are several
    error paths where the bwi_timer is not charged to call se_io_cb later, and
    the cb_context is leaked.
    
    The patch proposes to free the cb_context explicitly on those error paths.
    
    At the moment we can't simply check 'dev->ops->se_io()' return value as it
    may be negative in both cases: when the timer was charged and was not.
