PATCH 1/2 devlink: fix memory leak in cmd_dev_flash()

In reply to Andrea Claudi

nlg_ntf is dinamically allocated in mnlg_socket_open(), and is freed on the out: return path. However, some error paths do not free it, resulting in memory leak.

This commit fix this using mnlg_socket_close(), and reporting the correct error number when required.

Fixes 9b13cddfe268 ("devlink: implement flash status monitoring")
