Currently, in the case of extended skb allocation, the buffer is freed
before the DMA unmap operation. This premature deletion can result in
skb->data corruption, as the memory region could be re-allocated for other
purposes. Fix this issue by reordering the failure cases by calling
dma_unmap_single() first, then followed by the corresponding kfree_skb().
This helps avoid data corruption in case of failures in dp_tx().

Tested-on: QCN9274 hw2.0 PCI WLAN.WBE.1.4.1-00199-QCAHKSWPL_SILICONZ-1
Tested-on: WCN7850 hw2.0 PCI WLAN.HMT.1.0.c5-00481-QCAHMTSWPL_V1.0_V2.0_SILICONZ-3
