Subject: [PATCH 5.10 013/145] ibmvnic: fix login buffer memory leak

From: Lijun Pan <ljp@...ux.ibm.com>

[ Upstream commit a0c8be56affa7d5ffbdec24c992223be54db3b6e ]

Commit 34f0f4e3f488 ("ibmvnic: Fix login buffer memory leaks") frees
login_rsp_buffer in release_resources() and send_login()
because handle_login_rsp() does not free it.
Commit f3ae59c0c015 ("ibmvnic: store RX and TX subCRQ handle array in
ibmvnic_adapter struct") frees login_rsp_buffer in handle_login_rsp().
It seems unnecessary to free it in release_resources() and send_login().
There are chances that handle_login_rsp returns earlier without freeing
buffers. Double-checking the buffer is harmless since
release_login_buffer and release_login_rsp_buffer will
do nothing if buffer is already freed.

Fixes: f3ae59c0c015 ("ibmvnic: store RX and TX subCRQ handle array in ibmvnic_adapter struct")
