net: ipa: balance runtime PM reference on remove error

ipa_remove() takes a runtime PM reference before accessing IPA hardware
during teardown. If a concurrent modem start or stop keeps
ipa_modem_stop() busy across both attempts, the callback intentionally
returns without releasing the remaining resources because proceeding
with teardown could crash. That return also skips the matching
pm_runtime_put_noidle(), leaving the callback's usage-count reference
held.

Drop only this runtime PM reference before returning.
pm_runtime_put_noidle() does not request an idle transition, so the
hardware and resources retained on this exceptional path remain
untouched while the usage count stays balanced.

This issue was found by a static analysis checker and confirmed by
manual source review.
