[PATCH 3/5] i3c: master: Do not release the addresses when reattach fails

i3c_master_reattach_i3c_dev_locked() releases the address slots of the
device when the controller callback fails, even though the target keeps
responding to its dynamic address on the bus.

i3c_master_early_i3c_dev_add() cannot take that address back afterwards.
It jumps to err_rstdaa to reset the target, but i3c_master_rstdaa_locked()
only accepts an address that is marked as assigned. It rejects the request
with -EINVAL and sends no CCC, leaving the target responding to an address
that the core considers free and hands out during dynamic address
assignment.

i3c_master_reconcile_dyn_addrs() ignores the return value, so the device
stays attached and in the bus list at the address that SETNEWDA just
assigned to it, while the core is free to give the same address to another
device.

Leave the address slots to the callers. Those that cannot use the device
any longer detach it, which releases the slots in
i3c_master_detach_i3c_dev().

No in-tree controller fails its ->reattach_i3c_dev callback today, so
there is no known trigger for this. It is a robustness fix for the error
path only.
