commit 1affc01fdc6035189a5ab2a24948c9419ee0ecf2 upstream.
The call to bnxt_free_mem(..., false) in the bnxt_half_open_nic() error
path will deallocate ring descriptor memory via bnxt_free_?x_rings(),
but because irq_re_init is false, the ring info itself is not freed.
To simplify error paths, deallocation functions have generally been
written to be safe when called on unallocated memory. It should always
be safe to call dev_close(), which calls bnxt_free_skbs() a second time,
even in this semi- allocated ring state.
Calling bnxt_free_skbs() a second time with the rings already freed will
cause NULL pointer dereference. Fix it by checking the rings are valid
before proceeding in bnxt_free_tx_skbs() and
bnxt_free_one_rx_ring_skbs().

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
