Subject: [PATCH 5.6 034/118] nfp: abm: fix a memory leak bug

From: Qiushi Wu <wu000273@....edu>

[ Upstream commit bd4af432cc71b5fbfe4833510359a6ad3ada250d ]

In function nfp_abm_vnic_set_mac, pointer nsp is allocated by nfp_nsp_open.
But when nfp_nsp_has_hwinfo_lookup fail, the pointer is not released,
which can lead to a memory leak bug. Fix this issue by adding
nfp_nsp_close(nsp) in the error path.
