[dpdk-stable] [dpdk-dev] [PATCH v1] net/octeontx: fix dangling pointer on failure

[wangyunjian]

From: Yunjian Wang <wangyunjian at huawei.com>

When octeontx_create() is cleaning up, it does not correctly set
the mac_addrs variable to NULL, which will lead to a double free.

Fixes: 9e399b88ce2f ("net/octeontx: fix memory leak of MAC address table")
