I prefer to keep the function prototype as before and move the dynamic
allocation to mlx5e_open_channels,
to keep alloc/free symmetric in mlx5e_open_channels.

You can do the allocation here,  then you can benefit from the next
allocation check to test the 3 allocations altogether.
i.e:
if (!cparam || !priv->channel || !priv->txq_to_sq_map)
           goto err_free_txq_to_sq_map;
