Gavin Li 3a4aa3cb83 net/mlx5e: fix double free of encap_header in update funcs
Follow up to the previous patch to fix the same issue for
mlx5e_tc_tun_update_header_ipv4{6} when mlx5_packet_reformat_alloc()
fails.

When mlx5_packet_reformat_alloc() fails, the encap_header allocated in
mlx5e_tc_tun_update_header_ipv4{6} will be released within it. However,
e->encap_header is already set to the previously freed encap_header
before mlx5_packet_reformat_alloc(). As a result, the later
mlx5e_encap_put() will free e->encap_header again, causing a double free
issue.

mlx5e_encap_put()
     --> mlx5e_encap_dealloc()
         --> kfree(e->encap_header)

This patch fix it by not setting e->encap_header until
mlx5_packet_reformat_alloc() success.

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.
