[PATCH] can: usb: etas_es58x: Fix RX buffer leak on URB resubmit failure

[Guangshuo Li]

es58x_read_bulk_callback() resubmits the RX URB after processing a
received packet. If the resubmit succeeds, the URB remains anchored and
will be handled by the normal RX path or by teardown.

However, if usb_submit_urb() fails, the callback unanchors the URB and
then returns directly. This skips the existing free_urb path, so the
coherent transfer buffer allocated with usb_alloc_coherent() is not
released.

Reuse the existing free_urb path after a resubmit failure so that the RX
coherent buffer is freed before leaving the callback.

Fixes: 5eaad4f76826 ("can: usb: etas_es58x: correctly anchor the urb in the read bulk callback")

Just delete the return statement. No need for the goto as the label is
just below.
