Jianbo Liu aa9c44b842 net/mlx5e: Fix leak of Geneve TLV option object
Previously, a unique tunnel id was added for the matching on TC
non-zero chains, to support inner header rewrite with goto action.
Later, it was used to support VF tunnel offload for vxlan, then for
Geneve and GRE. To support VF tunnel, a temporary mlx5_flow_spec is
used to parse tunnel options. For Geneve, if there is TLV option, a
object is created, or refcnt is added if already exists. But the
temporary mlx5_flow_spec is directly freed after parsing, which causes
the leak because no information regarding the object is saved in
flow's mlx5_flow_spec, which is used to free the object when deleting
the flow.

To fix the leak, call mlx5_geneve_tlv_option_del() before free the
temporary spec if it has TLV object.

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 reStructuredText 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.
