[PATCH net] ice: detach the VF representor when ice_start_vfs() fails

From: Linkui Xiao <redacted>

ice_start_vfs() attaches every VF it brings up to the eswitch with
ice_eswitch_attach_vf(), but the teardown path only undoes the queue
mappings and the VF VSI. Nothing calls ice_eswitch_detach_vf() for the
VFs that were attached before the failure, and the caller, ice_ena_vfs(),
goes straight to ice_free_vf_entries(), which drops its reference to
every VF.

The port representors created for those VFs therefore outlive the
failed VF creation:

  - the representor netdev stays registered and its devlink port stays
    registered too. That port is embedded in struct ice_vf, so it ends
    up pointing into the memory that ice_sriov_free_vf() releases;

  - repr->vf keeps pointing at the freed struct ice_vf, and repr->src_vsi
    at the VF VSI that ice_vf_vsi_release() tore down. The leftover
    netdev is still visible to the user, so even a plain
    "ip -s link show" of it reaches ice_repr_get_stats64(), which calls
    repr->ops.ready() -> ice_check_vf_ready_for_cfg(repr->vf) and then
    reads repr->src_vsi through ice_update_eth_stats();

  - the virtchnl ops of that VF, which ice_repr_add_vf() replaced with
    ice_virtchnl_set_repr_ops(), are never handed back to
    ice_virtchnl_set_dflt_ops();

  - pf->eswitch.reprs never becomes empty, so ice_eswitch_detach() never
    calls ice_eswitch_disable_switchdev(). pf->eswitch.is_running stays
    true, with the bridge offloads and the devlink rate topology still
    up, and ice_eswitch_release_env() is skipped, so the uplink VSI is
    left in the switchdev configuration that ice_eswitch_setup_env()
    gave it.

Detach the representor in the teardown loop the way ice_free_vfs() does,
ahead of ice_vf_vsi_release(), because ice_repr_rem_vf() and
ice_eswitch_release_repr() both need repr->src_vsi to still be valid.
Every VF the teardown loop walks completed ice_eswitch_attach_vf()
successfully, and ice_eswitch_detach_vf() already returns early for a VF
without a representor, so no extra condition is needed.
