Kmemleak reported this error:

  unreferenced object 0xffff1c165cec3060 (size 32):
    comm "insmod", pid 560, jiffies 4296964570 (age 235.596s)
    backtrace:

      [<0000000087184c94>] really_probe+0x150/0x2c0

The firmware memory was allocated in ath12k_pci_probe(), but not
freed in ath12k_pci_remove() in case ATH12K_FLAG_QMI_FAIL bit is
set. So call ath12k_fw_unmap() to free the memory.

Tested-on: WCN7850 hw2.0 PCI WLAN.HMT.2.0-02280-QCAHMTSWPL_V1.0_V2.0_SILICONZ-1

v2: rebased as Jeff required
v3: move the qmi_fail label above ath12k_fw_unmap()
