firmware: stratix10-rsu: Fix NULL pointer dereference when RSU is disabled
When the Remote System Update (RSU) isn't enabled in the First Stage Boot Loader (FSBL), the driver encounters a NULL pointer dereference when excute svc_normal_to_secure_thread() thread, resulting in a kernel panic: Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000008 Mem abort info: ... Data abort info: ... [0000000000000008] user address but active_mm is swapper Internal error: Oops: 0000000096000004 [#1] SMP Modules linked in: CPU: 0 UID: 0 PID: 79 Comm: svc_smc_hvc_thr Not tainted 6.19.0-rc8-yocto-standard+ #59 PREEMPT Hardware name: SoCFPGA Stratix 10 SoCDK (DT) pstate: 60000005 (nZCv daif -PAN -UAO -TCO -DIT -SSBS BTYPE=--) pc : svc_normal_to_secure_thread+0x38c/0x990 lr : svc_normal_to_secure_thread+0x144/0x990 ...

However, the probe function continues execution and registers svc_normal_to_secure_thread(), which subsequently attempts to access the already-freed channel, triggering the NULL pointer dereference. Fix this by properly cleaning up the async client and returning early on failure, preventing the thread from being used with an invalid channel.
