Subject: [PATCH 3/6] usb: gadget: f_ncm: Refactor bind path to use __free()

After an bind/unbind cycle, the ncm->notify_req is left stale. If a
subsequent bind fails, the unified error label attempts to free this
stale request, leading to a NULL pointer dereference when accessing
ep->ops->free_request.

Refactor the error handling in the bind path to use the __free()
automatic cleanup mechanism.

Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000020
