Subject: [PATCH v2] ath10k: Correct error handling of dma_map_single()

The return value of dma_map_single() should be checked for errors using
dma_mapping_error() and the skb has been dequeued so it needs to be
freed.

Fixes: 1807da49733e ("ath10k: wmi: add management tx by reference support over wmi")
Reported-by: Niklas Cassel <niklas.cassel@...aro.org>
Signed-off-by: Bjorn Andersson <bjorn.andersson@...aro.org>

Changes since v1:
- Free the dequeued skb
