[PATCH 4.9 01/96] net/mlx4_core: Fix error handling in mlx4_init_port_info.

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Thu May 24 2018 - 06:56:43 EST


4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Tarick Bedeir <tarick@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 57f6f99fdad9984801cde05c1db68fe39b474a10 ]

Avoid exiting the function with a lingering sysfs file (if the first
call to device_create_file() fails while the second succeeds), and avoid
calling devlink_port_unregister() twice.

In other words, either mlx4_init_port_info() succeeds and returns zero, or
it fails, returns non-zero, and requires no cleanup.

Fixes: 096335b3f983 ("mlx4_core: Allow dynamic MTU configuration for IB ports")
