[PATCH 5.16 0598/1017] RDMA/mlx5: Fix memory leak in error flow for subscribe event routine

[ Upstream commit 087f9c3f2309ed183f7e4b85ae57121d8663224d ]

In case the second xa_insert() fails, the obj_event is not released. Fix
the error unwind flow to free that memory to avoid a memory leak.

Fixes: 759738537142 ("IB/mlx5: Enable subscription for device events over DEVX")
