From: Marcin Szycik <redacted> Change struct ice_ntuple_fltr allocation from devm_ to plain alloc, since its lifetime is not tied to the device. All such objects are being removed on device remove via ice_deinit_features() -> ice_deinit_fdir() -> ice_vsi_manage_fdir() -> ice_fdir_del_all_fltrs() Signed-off-by: Marcin Szycik <redacted> Reviewed-by: Aleksandr Loktionov <redacted> Tested-by: Rinitha S <redacted> (A Contingent worker at Intel) Signed-off-by: Tony Nguyen <anthony.l.nguyen@intel.com> --- drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice/ice_ethtool_ntuple.c | 8 ++++---- 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-)
