[PATCH AUTOSEL 6.12 02/47] wifi: ath11k: fix memory leak in ath11k_xxx_remove()

[Sasha Levin]

From: Miaoqing Pan <quic_miaoqing@xxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit efb24b1f0d29537714dd3cc46fb335ac27855251 ]

The firmware memory was allocated in ath11k_pci_probe() or
ath11k_ahb_probe(), but not freed in ath11k_xxx_remove() in case
ATH11K_FLAG_QMI_FAIL bit is set. So call ath11k_fw_destroy() to
free the memory.

Found while fixing the same problem in ath12k:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-wireless/20240314012746.2729101-1-quic_miaoqing@xxxxxxxxxxx

Tested-on: WCN6855 hw2.1 PCI WLAN.HSP.1.1-04546-QCAHSPSWPL_V1_V2_SILICONZ_IOE-1
