[PATCH] coresight: fix source not disabled on idr_alloc_u32 failure

In coresight_enable_sysfs(), for non-CPU sources (SOFTWARE, TPDM,
OTHERS), the source device is enabled via coresight_enable_source_sysfs()
before idr_alloc_u32() maps the path. If idr_alloc_u32() fails, the
original code jumped directly to err_source, which only calls
coresight_disable_path() and coresight_release_path(). The source device
was left enabled with an incremented refcnt but no path tracked for it,
leaving the device in an inconsistent state.

Disable the source before jumping to err_source so the enable and path
operations are fully unwound.
