[PATCH] firmware: arm_scmi: Free mailbox state on mapping failure

mailbox_chan_setup() allocates its private state from the SCMI base
device before mapping the shared-memory area. If mapping fails while
setting up an optional RX channel, the core ignores the RX failure and
keeps the base device bound, retaining that devres allocation.
Release the private mailbox state before returning the mapping error.
