When cdns3_gadget_start() fails, the DRD gadget is left in an
initialized state, causing a resource leak. When switching to host
mode, the stale state triggers a synchronous external abort in
xhci_gen_setup(), leading to kernel panic:
[ 1301.377716][ T5000][E] Internal error: synchronous external abort: 96000010 [#1] PREEMPT SMP
[ 1301.382485][ T5000][I] pc : xhci_gen_setup+0xa4/0x408
[ 1301.393391][ T5000][I] backtrace:
...
xhci_gen_setup+0xa4/0x408 <-- CRASH
xhci_plat_setup+0x44/0x58
usb_add_hcd+0x284/0x678
...
cdns_role_set+0x9c/0xbc <-- Role switch
Fix by calling cdns_drd_gadget_off() in the error path to properly
clean up the DRD gadget state. This prevents both the resource leak
and the kernel panic during role switching.

Good catch.
I have two questions:
- What exactly resource is leaked?
- Do you call cdns_drd_host_on before setup host?
Besides, you may add Fixed-by tag and Cc to stable tree.
