qat_comp_alg_init_tfm() acquires a compression instance via
qat_compression_get_instance_node() before calling qat_comp_build_ctx()
to initialize the compression context. If qat_comp_build_ctx() fails, the
function returns an error without releasing the compression instance,
causing a resource leak.

When qat_comp_build_ctx() fails, release the compression instance with
qat_compression_put_instance() and clear the context to avoid leaving a
stale reference to the released instance.

The issue was introduced when build_deflate_ctx() (which always returned
void) was replaced by qat_comp_build_ctx() (which can return an error)
without adding error handling for the failure path.
