Subject: net/mlx5: Fix driver load bad flow when having fw initializing timeout
From: Mohamad Haj Yahia <mohamad@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 55378a238e04b39cc82957d91d16499704ea719b ]
If FW is stuck in initializing state we will skip the driver load, but
current error handling flow doesn't clean previously allocated command
interface resources.
Fixes: e3297246c2c8 ('net/mlx5_core: Wait for FW readiness on startup')
