ice: fix memory leak if register_netdev_fails
The ice_setup_pf_sw function can cause a memory leak if register_netdev fails, due to accidentally failing to free the VSI rings. Fix the memory leak by using ice_vsi_release, ensuring we actually go through the full teardown process. This should be safe even if the netdevice is not registered because we will have set the netdev pointer to NULL, ensuring ice_vsi_release won't call unregister_netdev. An alternative fix would be moving management of the PF VSI netdev into the main VSI setup code. This is complicated and likely requires significant refactor in how we manage VSIs Fixes: 3a858ba3 ("ice: Add support for VSI allocation and deallocation") Signed-off-by: Jacob Keller <jacob.e.keller@intel.com> Tested-by: Aaron Brown <aaron.f.brown@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Tony Nguyen <anthony.l.nguyen@intel.com>
