[PATCH net] octeontx2-af: fix memory leak in rvu_setup_hw_resources()

If rvu_npc_exact_init() fails in rvu_setup_hw_resources(), the function
returns directly instead of jumping to the error handling path. This
causes a resource leak for the previously initialized CGX, NPC, fwdata,
and MSI-X states.

Fix this by replacing the direct return with goto cgx_err to ensure
proper cleanup.

The bug was first flagged by an experimental analysis tool we are
developing for kernel memory-management bugs while analyzing
v6.13-rc1. The tool is still under development and is not yet publicly
available. Manual inspection confirms that the bug is still present in
v7.1-rc7.

An x86_64 allyesconfig build showed no new warnings. As we do not have
access to Marvell OcteonTX2 RVU AF hardware to test with, no runtime
testing was able to be performed.
