    bnge: Fix resource leak in bnge_init_nic() error path

    If bnge_init_chip() fails, bnge_init_nic() jumps to err_free_ring_grps
    and returns immediately, skipping cleanup for RX ring pair buffers.

    Remove the early return so execution falls through to
    err_free_rx_ring_pair_bufs to properly free resources on error.
