[PATCH net v2] octeontx2-af: npc: cn20k: Fix subbank free list indexing for search order

From: Ratheesh Kannoth

Date: Fri Jun 19 2026 - 05:51:40 EST


subbank_srch_order[i] is the physical subbank at search-order slot i,
so each subbank's arr_idx must be i (its slot), not
subbank_srch_order[sb->idx]. The old logic mis-keyed xa_sb_free
and broke allocation traversal order.

Populate arr_idx and xa_sb_free in a single pass over the search
order after subbank structs are initialized.

Fixes: 7ac9d4c4075c ("octeontx2-af: npc: cn20k: add subbank search order control")
