The driver forgets to call destroy_workqueue when cxgb3 probe fails.
Add the missed calls to fix it.

Fixes: 4d22de3e6cc4 ("Add support for the latest 1G/10G Chelsio adapter, T3.")

You have to handle the case that the probing of one or more devices
fails yet one or more others succeed.

And you can't know in advance how this will play out.

This is why the workqueue is unconditionally created, and only destroyed
on module remove.

Thanks for your explanation. I got it.
