[PATCH] mtd: rawnand: stm32_fmc2: retire data DMA before unmapping on errors

When ECC descriptor preparation or submission fails in
stm32_fmc2_nfc_xfer(), the driver unmaps the data scatterlist without
terminating the previously issued DMA descriptor. The descriptor may
remain queued and execute when the next page operation starts,
potentially writing into a buffer that has already been unmapped and
returned to the NAND core. The timeout paths have a similar issue, as
they use dmaengine_terminate_all(), which does not guarantee that DMA
has stopped before the buffer is unmapped.
Terminate the outstanding data descriptor on ECC error paths and use
dmaengine_terminate_sync() on timeout paths, ensuring that DMA has
stopped before the associated mapping is released.

This issue was identified by a research static analyzer for DMA
lifecycle ordering and has not been validated on hardware. The patch has
only been compile-tested on arm64 with W=1.
