net: hisilicon: remove unexpected free_netdev
[ Upstream commit c758940158bf29fe14e9d0f89d5848f227b48134 ] The net device ndev is freed via free_netdev when failing to register the device. The control flow then jumps to the error handling code block. ndev is used and freed again. Resulting in a use-after-free bug. Signed-off-by: Pan Bian <bianpan2016@163.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>
