Subject: [PATCH] rtw88: check the return value of alloc_workqueue()

From: William Dean <williamsukatube@...il.com>

The function alloc_workqueue() in rtw_core_init() can fail, but
there is no check of its return value. To fix this bug, its return value
should be checked with new error handling code.

Fixes: fe101716c7c9d ("rtw88: replace tx tasklet with work queue")
