sfc: fix potential memory leak in efx_mae_process_mport()

Browse source

[ Upstream commit 46a499aaf8 ]

In efx_mae_enumerate_mports(), memory allocated for mae_mport_desc is
passed as a argument to efx_mae_process_mport(), but when the error path
in efx_mae_process_mport() gets executed, the memory allocated for desc
gets leaked.

Fix that by freeing the memory allocation before returning error.
