The vectors are requested with the q_vector as dev_id, but the error
path frees them with &vsi->q_vectors[vector], which is the address of
the array slot. devm_free_irq() finds no matching devres entry, warns
and leaves the IRQ requested. The unwind also tries to free vectors that
the request loop skipped because they have no rings.

Forcing request_irq to fail on the fourth vector during ndo_open gives:

 ice 0000:04:00.2 enp4s0f2np2: MSIX request_irq failed, error: -16
 WARNING: kernel/irq/devres.c:191 at devm_free_irq+0x30/0x40
 WARNING: kernel/irq/devres.c:191 at devm_free_irq+0x30/0x40
 WARNING: kernel/irq/devres.c:191 at devm_free_irq+0x30/0x40

and the three IRQs stay registered in /proc/interrupts while the
interface is down.

Pass the q_vector as dev_id and skip the vectors without rings, which
the request loop never requested.

i40e fixed the same mistake in commit 915470e1b44e ("i40e: fix IRQ
freeing in i40e_vsi_request_irq_msix error path").
