From: Leon Romanovsky <leonro@nvidia.com> stable inclusion from stable-v5.10.122 commit ea5edd015feb1824002579513e351002bde9226e category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I5W6OE Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=... -------------------------------- [ Upstream commit 80b2bd737d0e833e6a2b77e482e5a714a79c86a4 ] The call to mlx5dr_action_destroy() releases "action" memory. That pointer is set to miss_action later and generates the following smatch error: drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/steering/fs_dr.c:53 set_miss_action() warn: 'action' was already freed. Make sure that the pointer is always valid by setting NULL after destroy.
