[PATCH] dmaengine: qcom: hidma: fix autosuspend cleanup during teardown

hidma_probe() calls pm_runtime_use_autosuspend(), but neither the probe
failure path nor hidma_remove() calls the matching
pm_runtime_dont_use_autosuspend() before disabling runtime PM.

If the autosuspend delay is set to a negative value while autosuspend
is enabled, the runtime PM core increments usage_count to prevent
runtime suspend. Without calling pm_runtime_dont_use_autosuspend()
during teardown, this reference is not dropped and usage_count remains
unbalanced.

Add the missing pm_runtime_dont_use_autosuspend() calls to both the
probe failure and remove paths before disabling runtime PM.

This issue was found by manual code inspection.
