Subject: [PATCH] [ARM] tcm: Add error handling for gen_pool_create in setup_tcm_pool

The new code checks the return value of gen_pool_create, and if
it indicates an error, the setup process is aborted, and an
appropriate error code is returned. This ensures that the TCM pool
setup does not silently fail.
