[PATCH] wifi: iwlegacy: unregister the LED if 3945 hardware registration fails

[Zhao Li <enderaoelyther@gmail.com>]

If ieee80211_register_hw() fails during 3945 setup, later LED callbacks
can access hardware and driver state that probe has already freed.

il3945_setup_mac() registers the LED before the mac80211 hardware, but
its registration error path does not call il_leds_exit(). The analogous
4965 failure releases the driver and reaches its existing remove cleanup.

Unregister the 3945 LED before unwinding a failed hardware registration.

LLM assistance was used to find the bug and review.

Validation: A W=1 module build with MODPOST passed. Not
reproduced; 3945 hardware was unavailable.
Sparse C=2 passed. Targeted Smatch introduced no new diagnostics.
