staging: rtl8712: fix a potential memory leak in r871xu_drv_init()

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

staging: rtl8712: fix a potential memory leak in r871xu_drv_init()

In r871xu_drv_init(), if r8712_init_drv_sw() fails, then the memory
allocated by r8712_alloc_io_queue() in r8712_usb_dvobj_init() is not
properly released as there is no action will be performed by
r8712_usb_dvobj_deinit().
To properly release it, we should call r8712_free_io_queue() in
r8712_usb_dvobj_deinit().

Besides, in r871xu_dev_remove(), r8712_usb_dvobj_deinit() will be called
by r871x_dev_unload() under condition `padapter->bup` and
r8712_free_io_queue() is called by r8712_free_drv_sw().
However, r8712_usb_dvobj_deinit() does not rely on `padapter->bup` and
calling r8712_free_io_queue() in r8712_free_drv_sw() is negative for
better understading the code.
So I move r8712_usb_dvobj_deinit() into r871xu_dev_remove(), and remove
r8712_free_io_queue() from r8712_free_drv_sw().

CWE-401 Missing Release of Memory after Effective Lifetime

The product does not sufficiently track and release allocated memory after it has been used, making the memory unavailable for reallocation and reuse.
