Dan thanks for your patch.

When reviewed your patch, I spotted another error in the patch from the Fixes line.

  2955         err = mlx5_ft_pool_init(dev);
  2956         if (err)
  2957                 return err;
  2958
  2959         steering = kzalloc(sizeof(*steering), GFP_KERNEL);
  2960         if (!steering)
  2961                 goto err;
                       ^^^^^^^^ it will return success, while should return ENOMEM.

Thanks,
