Thanks for the review.

This issue was found by code review of the error paths in
ath12k_mac_setup_channels_rates(). I do not have QCN9274/WCN7850
hardware, so I could not provide a Tested-on tag or reproduce the
ENOMEM double-free on a device.

The bug is: after kfree() of sbands[].channels on failure, the
pointer is left non-NULL (or the wrong band is cleared), and
ath12k_mac_cleanup_unregister() frees it again.

I understand Tested-on is required for ath12k. I will follow up
with a v2 including Tested-on once I can test on QCN9274/WCN7850
hardware. Meanwhile, any Tested-by from someone with the hardware
would be appreciated.

Thanks,
