Subject: [net-next 13/15] net/mlx5: fs, delete the FTE when there are no rules attached to it

From: Mark Bloch <mbloch@...dia.com>

When an FTE has no children is means all the rules where removed
and the FTE can be deleted regardless of the dests_size value.
While dests_size should be 0 when there are no children
be extra careful not to leak memory or get firmware syndrome
if the proper bookkeeping of dests_size wasn't done.
