Similar code in mlx5e_open_channels (en_main.c) uses kvzalloc. Although 
the struct is currently smaller than a page anyway, and there should be 
no difference in behavior now, I suggest using the same alloc function 
to keep code uniform.

Here is kfree missing. It's a memory leak in the good path.

Thanks!
