[PATCH] scsi: aacraid: Prevent premature freeing and improve memory allocation checks for fsa_dev

[Riyan Dhiman]

Refactor the allocation and freeing sequence of `fsa_dev` to ensure
that memory is not prematurely freed, which could lead to use-after-free errors
or undefined behavior.

Changes:
- Modified the order of memory operations by allocating new memory for fsa_dev
  first and checking for success before freeing the old fsa_dev pointer.
- Updated the error handling to ensure -ENOMEM is returned if allocation fails,
  preserving the existing valid memory.
