Subject: [PATCH] drm/xe/sync: Cleanup partially initialized sync on parse
 failure

xe_sync_entry_parse() can allocate references (syncobj, fence, chain fence,
or user fence) before hitting a later failure path. Several of those paths
returned directly, leaving partially initialized state and leaking refs.

Route these error paths through a common free_sync label and call
xe_sync_entry_cleanup(sync) before returning the error.
