Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to LTS release 18.11.9

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 06/03/20. So please
shout if anyone has objections.

Also note that after the patch there's a diff of the upstream commit vs the
patch applied to the branch. This will indicate if there was any rebasing
needed to apply to the stable branch. If there were code changes for rebasing
(ie: not only metadata diffs), please double check that the rebase was
correctly done.

Queued patches are on a temporary branch at:
https://github.com/kevintraynor/dpdk-stable-queue

This queued commit can be viewed at:
https://github.com/kevintraynor/dpdk-stable-queue/commit/a99aae61bec83b99d3fc8423c5246dd3514fb052

Thanks.

Kevin.

Subject: [PATCH] net/vhost: fix potential memory leak on close

[ upstream commit 770fabcd36ec11d64544e86ed7d2dda9f5c64daf ]

If a vhost device is closed before eth_dev_configure is done
to the device, internal resources allocated to the device
would not be freed. This patch fixes it.

Fixes: 3d01b759d267 ("net/vhost: delay driver setup")
