[PATCH] common/mlx5: fix extraction of auxiliary network device name

From: Gregory Etelson <hidden>
Date: 2025-06-15 07:42:09
Subsystem: the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

The PMD reads auxiliary network device name from the Linux SYSFS.

The current implementation closed directory context before it copied
a file name from that directory into internal buffer.

The patch closes SYSFS directory after file name was copied.

Fixes: 777b72a9339c ("common/mlx5: support auxiliary bus")
Cc: stable@dpdk.org
