Subject: [PATCH 1/1] drivers: net: mhi: fix error path in mhi_net_newlink

Fix double free_netdev when mhi_prepare_for_transfer fails.

This is a back-port of upstream:
commit 4526fe74c3c509 ("drivers: net: mhi: fix error path in mhi_net_newlink")

Fixes: 13adac032982 ("net: mhi_net: Register wwan_ops for link creation")
Signed-off-by: Daniele Palmas <dnlplm@...il.com>

Hello Greg,

if maintainers ack, this should go just to 5.14 branch.

Thanks,
Daniele
