[PATCH] drm/vc4: Improve exception handling in vc4_validate_shader()

[Markus Elfring]

From: Markus Elfring <elfring at users.sourceforge.net>
Date: Tue, 26 Dec 2023 18:22:54 +0100

Memory releases were triggered during error handling only over
the label “fail”.

1. Return directly after a call of the function “kcalloc” failed
   at the beginning.

2. Reduce the data processing at the end to a required kfree() call order
   also by adjusting jump targets.

3. Delete an initialisation for the variable “validated_shader”
   which became unnecessary with this refactoring.
