mana_detach() sets port_is_up = false before calling mana_dealloc_queues(). If that call were to fail and return early, netif_device_detach() and mana_cleanup_port_context() are skipped, leaving the port in an inconsistent state where port_is_up is false but netif_device_present() still returns true. A subsequent mana_detach() from the reset work handler would then overwrite port_st_save with false, causing mana_attach() to skip queue allocation and leave the port permanently dead.
Remove the early return so that mana_detach() always completes its full teardown. mana_dealloc_queues() already performs best-effort cleanup regardless of internal errors (and in practice cannot fail here since port_is_up is already false), so continuing to netif_device_detach() and mana_cleanup_port_context() is safe and ensures the state is always consistent for recovery.
