[PATCH] drm/panthor: Fix memory leak in panthor_ioctl_group_create()

When bailing out due to group_priority_permit() failure, the queue_args
need to be freed. Fix it by rearranging the function to use the
goto-on-error pattern, such that the success case flows straight without
indentation while error cases jump forward to cleanup.

testcase:
```
#include <err.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <stddef.h>
#include <sys/ioctl.h>
#include <drm/panthor_drm.h>
#define SYSCHK(x) ({ \
typeof(x) __res = (x); \
if (__res == (typeof(x))-1) \
err(1, "SYSCHK(" #x ")"); \
__res; \
})
#define GPU_PATH "/dev/dri/by-path/platform-fb000000.gpu-card"
int main(void) {
int fd = SYSCHK(open(GPU_PATH, O_RDWR));
while (1) {
struct drm_panthor_queue_create qc[16] = {};
struct drm_panthor_group_create gc = {
.queues = {
.stride = sizeof(struct drm_panthor_queue_create),
.count = 16,
.array = (unsigned long)qc
},
.priority = PANTHOR_GROUP_PRIORITY_HIGH+1/*invalid*/
};
ioctl(fd, DRM_IOCTL_PANTHOR_GROUP_CREATE, &gc);
}
}
```
I have tested that without this patch, after running the testcase for a
few seconds and then manually killing it, 2G of RAM in kmalloc-128 have
been leaked. With the patch applied, the memory leak is gone.
(By the way, get_maintainer.pl suggests that I also send this patch to
the general DRM maintainers and the DRM-misc maintainers; looking at
MAINTAINERS, it looks like it is normal that the general DRM maintainers
are listed for everything under drivers/gpu/, but DRM-misc has exclusion
rules for a bunch of drivers but not panthor. I don't know if that is
intentional.)
