Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to stable release 19.11.7

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 02/06/21. 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/cpaelzer/dpdk-stable-queue

This queued commit can be viewed at:
https://github.com/cpaelzer/dpdk-stable-queue/commit/7d736428549de774906fe4bedaa9614fe3374aca

Thanks.

Subject: [PATCH] net/bnxt: fix memory leak when mapping fails

[ upstream commit b9f0ad21f856b1d577f3369421559582639e53cf ]

We allocated memory for the 'buf' when sending message to HWRM,
but we don't free it when mapping the address to IO address
fails. It will lead to memory leak.

Fixes: 19e6af01bb36 ("net/bnxt: support get/set EEPROM")
