[PATCH 1/2] wifi: ath11k: fix error path leaks in some WMI WOW calls

Fix two instances where we used to directly return the result of
ath11k_wmi_cmd_send(...). Because we did not check the return value, we
also did not free the skb in the error path.
Fixes: 79802b13a492 ("ath11k: implement WoW enable and wakeup commands")
