net/mlx5e: Fix memory usage issues in offloading TC flows
[ Upstream commit af1607c3 ] For NIC flows, the parsed attributes are not freed when we exit successfully from mlx5e_configure_flower(). There is possible double free for eswitch flows. If error is returned from rhashtable_insert_fast(), the parse attrs will be freed in mlx5e_tc_del_flow(), but they will be freed again before exiting mlx5e_configure_flower(). To fix both issues we do the following: (1) change the condition that determines if to issue the free call to check if this flow is NIC flow, or it does not have encap action. (2) reorder the code such that that the check and free calls are done before we attempt to add into the hash table.
