Hi, Shradha

Perhaps I am on the wrong track here, but I have some concerns
about clean-up paths.

Firstly.  I think that apc->indir_table should be to NULL here for
consistency with other clean-up paths. Or alternatively, fields of apc
should not set to NULL elsewhere after being freed.

In looking into this I noticed that mana_probe() does not call
mana_remove() or return an error in the cases where mana_probe_port() or
mana_attach() fail unless add_adev also fails. If so, is that intentional?

In any case, I would suggest as a follow-up, arranging things so that when
an error occurs in a function, anything that was allocated is unwound
before returning an error.

I think this would make allocation/deallocation easier to reason with.
And I suspect it would avoid both the need for fields of structures to be
zeroed after being freed, and the need to call mana_remove() from
mana_probe().

nit: Not strictly related to this patch, but the reset_apc code should
     probably be a call to mana_cleanup_port_context() as it is the dual of
     mana_init_port_context() which is called earlier in mana_probe_port()

The code to free and zero indir_table_sz and indir_table appears twice
in this patch. Perhaps a helper to do this, which would be the dual
of mana_rss_table_alloc is in order.
