iavf: fix potential deadlock on allocation failure
In iavf_adminq_task(), if kzalloc() fails to allocate the event.msg_buf, the function will exit without releasing the adapter->crit_lock. This is unlikely, but if it happens, the next access to that mutex will deadlock. Fix this by moving the unlock to the end of the function, and adding a new label to allow jumping to the unlock portion of the function exit flow.
