While it is heap allocated when an rx queue is setup, and freed when torn down, an old line of code in vmxnet3_rq_destroy was not properly removed, leading to rq->buf_info[0] being set to NULL prior to its being freed, causing a memory leak, which eventually exhausts the system on repeated create/destroy operations (for example, when the mtu of a vmxnet3 interface is changed frequently. Fix is pretty straight forward, just move the NULL set to after the free. Tested by myself with successful results Applies to net, and should likely be queued for stable, please Signed-off-by: Neil Horman Reported-By: boyang@redhat.com CC: boyang@redhat.com CC: Shrikrishna Khare CC: "VMware, Inc."
