mlx5e_close_xdpsq does the cleanup: it calls mlx5e_free_xdpsq_descs to
free the outstanding descriptors, which relies on
mlx5e_page_release_dynamic and page_pool_release_page. However,
page_pool_destroy is already called by this point, because
mlx5e_close_rq runs before mlx5e_close_xdpsq.
This commit fixes the use-after-free by swapping mlx5e_close_xdpsq and
mlx5e_close_rq.
The commit cited below started calling page_pool_destroy directly from
the driver. Previously, the page pool was destroyed under a call_rcu
from xdp_rxq_info_unreg_mem_model, which would defer the deallocation
until after the XDPSQ is cleaned up.

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.
