[PATCH] ixgbe: fix memory leak on ipsec allocation

From: Colin King
Date: Wed May 09 2018 - 09:59:01 EST


From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

The error clean up path kfree's adapter->ipsec and should be
instead kfree'ing ipsec. Fix this. Also, the err1 error exit path
does not need to kfree ipsec because this failure path was for
the failed allocation of ipsec.

Detected by CoverityScan, CID#146424 ("Resource Leak")

Fixes: 63a67fe229ea ("ixgbe: add ipsec offload add and remove SA")
