[PATCH] i40iw: Avoid writing to freed memory

From: Shiraz Saleem <hidden>
Date: 2016-08-23 22:24:56
Subsystem: infiniband subsystem, the rest · Maintainers: Jason Gunthorpe, Leon Romanovsky, Linus Torvalds

From: Mustafa Ismail <redacted>

iwpbl->iwmr points to the structure that contains iwpbl, 
which is iwmr. Setting this to NULL would result in 
writing to freed memory. So just free iwmr, and return. 

Fixes: d37498417947 ("i40iw: add files for iwarp interface")
