[PATCH 5.4 330/411] net/mlx5: Dont use already freed action pointer

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

From: Leon Romanovsky <leonro@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 80b2bd737d0e833e6a2b77e482e5a714a79c86a4 ]

The call to mlx5dr_action_destroy() releases "action" memory. That
pointer is set to miss_action later and generates the following smatch
error:

 drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/steering/fs_dr.c:53 set_miss_action()
 warn: 'action' was already freed.

Make sure that the pointer is always valid by setting NULL after destroy.

Fixes: 6a48faeeca10 ("net/mlx5: Add direct rule fs_cmd implementation")
