Subject: [PATCH] soc: xilinx: Fix a memory leak in zynqmp_pm_remove()

'rx_chan' is known to be NULL here.
Reverse the logic to free the mbox if it has been allocated.

'rx_chan' may be NULL, but mbox_free_channel() handles it.
Maybe it is more informative to keep a (useless) "if (rx_chan)" to tell
that it may not be allocated.


On my machine, compilation fails with gcc (Ubuntu 12.1.0-2ubuntu1~22.04):

  CC      drivers/soc/xilinx/zynqmp_power.o
drivers/soc/xilinx/zynqmp_power.c: In function ‘zynqmp_pm_probe’:
drivers/soc/xilinx/zynqmp_power.c:193:12: error: ‘pm_api_version’ is used uninitialized [-Werror=uninitialized]
  193 |         if (pm_api_version < ZYNQMP_PM_VERSION)
      |            ^
drivers/soc/xilinx/zynqmp_power.c:187:13: note: ‘pm_api_version’ was declared here
  187 |         u32 pm_api_version;
      |             ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~
cc1: all warnings being treated as errors

I think that this warning is bogus and gcc is wrong.

But I don't know what to do with it :/
Anyway, it is un-realated to this patch.
