The driver falls back to PIO mode if DMA setup fails during probe.

Make sure to clear the DMA channel pointer also if buffer allocation
fails to avoid passing a pointer to the released channel to the DMA
engine (or trying to free the channel a second time on late probe errors
or driver unbind).

This issue was flagged by Sashiko when reviewing a devres allocation
conversion patch.
