When allocating device data, if there's an allocation failure, the already allocated memory won't be freed such as per-cpu counters. Fix memory leaks in exception path by creating a common reentrant clean up function hfi1_clean_devdata() to be used at driver unload time and device data allocation failure. To accomplish this, free_platform_config() and clean_up_i2c() are changed to be reentrant to remove dependencies when they are called in different order. This helps avoid NULL pointer dereferences introduced by this patch if those two functions weren't reentrant. In addition, set dd->int_counter, dd->rcv_limit, dd->send_schedule and dd->tx_opstats to NULL after they're freed in hfi1_clean_devdata(), so that hfi1_clean_devdata() is fully reentrant.

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.
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.
