patch 'net/bnxt: fix representor info freeing' has been queued to stable release 21.11.3

[Kevin Traynor]

Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to stable release 21.11.3

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 11/01/22. 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

This queued commit can be viewed at:
https://github.com/kevintraynor/dpdk-stable/commit/b673b37b9aaf889c05ed462d0890027023f576c6

Thanks.

Kevin

Subject: [PATCH] net/bnxt: fix representor info freeing

[ upstream commit 5fdf25bd5531b3cb267201272c259ba4d0a32ca5 ]

Driver allocates "bp->rep_info" inside bnxt_init_rep_info() which is
invoked from bnxt_rep_port_probe(). But the memory is freed inside
bnxt_uninit_resources(), which is wrong. As a result, after error
recovery bp->rep_info will be NULL. The memory should have freed inside
bnxt_drv_uninit() to maintain symmetry of calls.

Fixes: 6dc83230b43b ("net/bnxt: support port representor data path")
