Subject: [PATCH] kni: fix crash caused by freeing mempool

[ upstream commit 57a484e08a7ef3dea2018157d518b01a891ddfca ]

To clean alloc_q, which has physical addresses of the mbufs, kni lib
free the pkt_mempool, but this leads a crash in kni unit test.

KNI library shouldn't free the pkt_mempool.

Implementation updated to find the mbufs in the alloc_q and return them
back to mempool.

Fixes: 8eba5ebd1811 ("kni: fix possible memory leak")
