Subject: [PATCH 5.19 0333/1157] ath11k: fix missing skb drop on htc_tx_completion error

From: Christian 'Ansuel' Marangi <ansuelsmth@...il.com>

[ Upstream commit e5646fe3b7ef739c392e59da7db6adf5e1fdef42 ]

On htc_tx_completion error the skb is not dropped. This is wrong since
the completion_handler logic expect the skb to be consumed anyway even
when an error is triggered. Not freeing the skb on error is a memory
leak since the skb won't be freed anywere else. Correctly free the
packet on eid >= ATH11K_HTC_EP_COUNT before returning.

Tested-on: IPQ8074 hw2.0 AHB WLAN.HK.2.5.0.1-01208-QCAHKSWPL_SILICONZ-1
