In function k3_udma_glue_request_rx_chn_priv(), the pointer rx_chn->flows,
after being compared to NULL, is passed to k3_udma_glue_release_rx_chn(),
where it is dereferenced unconditionally after being passed to
k3_udma_glue_release_rx_flow() in a for loop. This happens because
rx_chn->flow_num is set before successful allocation.
This fix sets rx_chn->flow_num only after rx_chn->flows is successfully
allocated, preventing the for loop from running if allocation fails.
Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.
