There can be a scenario where probe fails to acquire the base

managed memory including the scmi_mailbox structure setup during
mailbox_chan_setup function.

Now when a message arrives at cpu slightly after the timeout, the mailbox
controller will try to call the rx_callback of the client and might end
up accessing freed memory.

This patch frees the mailbox channels setup during probe and adds some more
error handling in case the probe fails.

Hi Rishabh,

Good catch, thanks for this.

Shouldn't we also clear the internal IDRs memory allocs after these
idr_for_each() adding a couple of:

	idr_destroy(&info->tx_idr);

	idr_destroy(&info->rx_idr);

like scmi_remove() does ?

Thanks,
Cristian

Maybe it could be worth at this point unifying this common "cleanup-all-channels"
logic shared between scmi_probe()-error-path and scmi_remove() into its own
helper function to call from both sites.

Thanks,
Cristian
