If register_netdev() fails, the error handling path of the probe will not
free the memory allocated by the previous airoha_metadata_dst_alloc() call
because port->dev->reg_state will not be NETREG_REGISTERED.
So, an explicit airoha_metadata_dst_free() call is needed in this case to
avoid a memory leak.
