net: altera-tse: fix skb leak on DMA mapping error in tse_start_xmit()

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

net: altera-tse: fix skb leak on DMA mapping error in tse_start_xmit()

When dma_map_single() fails in tse_start_xmit(), the function returns
NETDEV_TX_OK without freeing the skb. Since NETDEV_TX_OK tells the
stack the packet was consumed, the skb is never freed, leaking memory
on every DMA mapping failure.

Add dev_kfree_skb_any() before returning to properly free the skb.

CWE-401 Missing Release of Memory after Effective Lifetime

The product does not sufficiently track and release allocated memory after it has been used, which slowly consumes remaining memory.
