Inside macsec_add_dev() we free percpu macsec->secy.tx_sc.stats and macsec->stats on some of the memory allocation failure paths. However, the net_device is already registered to that moment: in macsec_newlink(), just before calling macsec_add_dev(). This means that during unregister process its priv_destructor - macsec_free_netdev() - will be called and will free the stats again. Remove freeing percpu stats inside macsec_add_dev() because macsec_free_netdev() will correctly free the already allocated ones. The pointers to unallocated stats stay NULL, and free_percpu() treats that correctly. Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with Syzkaller.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
