Colin Ian King 825f8b0b17 net/mlx5: Fix uininitialized pointer read on pointer attr
Currently the error exit path err_free kfree's attr. In the case where
flow and parse_attr failed to be allocated this return path will free
the uninitialized pointer attr, which is not correct.  In the other
case where attr fails to allocate attr does not need to be freed. So
in both error exits via err_free attr should not be freed, so remove
it.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Uninitialized pointer read")

README

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.
