Subject: [PATCH] igb in linux-3.18.0: some potential bugs

I have actually tested igb driver on the real hardware(Intel 82575EB PCI-E
Gigabit Ethernet Controller), and find some potential bugs:
The target file is drivers/net/ethernet/intel/igb/igb_main.c

(1) In the normal process of igb, pci_enable_pcie_error_reporting and
pci_disable_pcie_error_reporting is called in pairs in igb_probe and
igb_remove. However, when pci_enable_pcie_error_reporting has been called
and alloc_etherdev_mqs in igb_probe is failed, "err_alloc_etherdev" segment
in igb_probe is executed immediately to exit, but
pci_disable_pcie_error_reporting is not called.
(2) The same situation happens when pci_iomap in igb_probe is failed.
(3) The same situation happens when igb_sw_init in igb_probe is failed.
(4) The same situation happens when register_netdev in igb_probe is failed.
(5) The same situation happens when igb_init_i2c in igb_probe is failed.

(6) The function kcalloc is called by igb_sw_init when initializing the
ethernet card driver, but kfree is not called when register_netdev in
igb_probe is failed, which may cause memory leak.
(7) The same situation happens when igb_init_i2c in igb_probe is failed.
(8) The same situation happens when kzalloc in igb_alloc_q_vector is failed.
(9) The same situation happens when igb_alloc_q_vector in
igb_alloc_q_vectors is failed.

(10) When igb_init_i2c in igb_probe is failed, igb_enable_sriov is called in
igb_probe_vfs, but igb_disable_sriov is not called.
(11) The same situation with [10] happens when register_netdev in igb_probe
is failed.

Meanwhile, I also write the patch to fix the bugs. I have run the patch on
the hardware, it can work normally and fix the above bugs.
