Subject: [net-next 06/20] i40evf: null out ring pointers on free
From: Mitch Williams <mitch.a.williams@...el.com>
Since we check these ring pointers to make sure we don't double-allocate
or double-free the rings, we had better null them out after we free
them. In very rare cases this can cause a panic if the driver is removed
during reset recovery.
