Subject: [PATCH 4.4 099/312] ath10k: free cached fw bin contents when get board id fails

From: Raja Mani <rmani@....qualcomm.com>

commit b9c191be3fbdd9d78be11160dd7a3ddb9fdc6d42 upstream.

ath10k_core_probe_fw() simply returns error without freeing
cached firmware file content when get board id operation fails.
Free cached fw bin data in failure case to avoid memory leak.

Fixes: db0984e51a18 ("ath10k: select board data based on BMI chip id and board id")
