[RFC PATCH 2/2] i3c: master: Propagate SETAASA early device-add failures

[Nirmoy Das]

i3c_master_bus_init() ignores errors from
i3c_master_early_i3c_dev_add(). This is recoverable for SETDASA devices
because they can be discovered later through ENTDAA.

SETAASA devices do not participate in ENTDAA. If their early attach or
reattach fails, bus initialization still sends the SETAASA broadcast and
continues without registering the device. The target may consequently
have an active address without a corresponding I3C device.

Abort bus initialization when early device registration fails for a
SETAASA device. Preserve the existing fallback behavior for other static
address methods.
