wifi: ray_cs: Fix an error handling path in ray_probe()
[ Upstream commit 4f8d66a9fb2edcd05c1e563456a55a08910bfb37 ]
Should ray_config() fail, some resources need to be released as already
done in the remove function.
While at it, remove a useless and erroneous comment. The probe is
ray_probe(), not ray_attach().
