scsi: bfa: Fix use-after-free in bfad_im_module_exit()
BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in __lock_acquire+0x2aca/0x3a20 Read of size 8 at addr ffff8881082d80c8 by task modprobe/25303

Above issue happens as follows:
bfad_init error = bfad_im_module_init() fc_release_transport(bfad_im_scsi_transport_template); if (error) goto ext;
ext: bfad_im_module_exit(); fc_release_transport(bfad_im_scsi_transport_template); –> Trigger double release
Don’t call bfad_im_module_exit() if bfad_im_module_init() failed.
