Saeed Mahameed a7625bacaa net/mlx5e: Pass netdev to mlx5e_destroy_netdev instead of priv 
[ Upstream commit 4ef8512e14 ]

mlx5e_priv is an unstable structure that can be memset(0) if profile
attaching fails.

Pass netdev to mlx5e_destroy_netdev() to guarantee it will work on a
valid netdev.

On mlx5e_remove: Check validity of priv->profile, before attempting
to cleanup any resources that might be not there.

This fixes a kernel oops in mlx5e_remove when switchdev mode fails due
to change profile failure.

$ devlink dev eswitch set pci/0000:00:03.0 mode switchdev

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
