In brcmf_usb_dl_cmd(), the error logging is not enough to describe
the error state. And some caller of the brcmf_usb_dl_cmd() does not
handle its error. An error log in brcmf_usb_dl_cmd() is needed to
prevent silent failure.

Add error handling in brcmf_usb_dl_cmd() to log the command id and
error code in the brcmf_usb_dl_cmd() fails. In this way, every
invocation of the function logs a message upon failure.

v4: Fix spelling problem.
v3: Change patch name and comment. Move error log into brcmf_usb_dl_cmd().
v2: Remove redundant bailing out code.

The finalize label is used for failure path as well. So I suggest to get 
rid of it requiring modified patch like:

- finalize:
        kfree(tmpbuf);
-       return ret;
+.     return 0;
+
+ err:

+      brcmf_err("dl cmd %u failed: err=%d\n", cmd, ret);
+      kfree(tmpbuf);
+      return ret;
}

Obviously this means tmpbuf should be NULL initialized.

Regards,
Arend
