[ Upstream commit 24357e06ba511ad874d664d39475dbb01c1ca450 ] mac_hlist was initialized during adapter_up, which will be called every time a vf device is first brought up, or every time when device is brought up again after bringing all devices down. This means our state of previous list is lost, causing a memleak if entries are present in the list. To fix that, move list init to the condition that performs initial one time adapter setup.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
