spi: Cleanup on failure of initial setup

Commit c7299fea ("spi: Fix spi device unregister flow") changed the
SPI core's behavior if the ->setup() hook returns an error upon adding
an spi_device:  Before, the ->cleanup() hook was invoked to free any
allocations that were made by ->setup().  With the commit, that's no
longer the case, so the ->setup() hook is expected to free the
allocations itself.

I've identified 5 drivers which depend on the old behavior and am fixing
them up hereinafter: spi-bitbang.c spi-fsl-spi.c spi-omap-uwire.c
spi-omap2-mcspi.c spi-pxa2xx.c

Importantly, ->setup() is not only invoked on spi_device *addition*:
It may subsequently be called to *change* SPI parameters.  If changing
these SPI parameters fails, freeing memory allocations would be wrong.
That should only be done if the spi_device is finally destroyed.
I am therefore using a bool "initial_setup" in 4 of the affected drivers
to differentiate between the invocation on *adding* the spi_device and
any subsequent invocations: spi-bitbang.c spi-fsl-spi.c spi-omap-uwire.c
spi-omap2-mcspi.c

In spi-pxa2xx.c, it seems the ->setup() hook can only fail on spi_device
addition, not any subsequent calls.  It therefore doesn't need the bool.

It's worth noting that 5 other drivers already perform a cleanup if the
->setup() hook fails.  Before c7299fea, they caused a double-free
if ->setup() failed on spi_device addition.  Since the commit, they're
fine.  These drivers are: spi-mpc512x-psc.c spi-pl022.c spi-s3c64xx.c
spi-st-ssc4.c spi-tegra114.c

(spi-pxa2xx.c also already performs a cleanup, but only in one of
several error paths.)

Fixes: c7299fea
