net: microchip: sparx5: clean up PSFP resources on flower setup failure
This patch adds error handling paths to sparx5_tc_flower_psfp_setup() so
that PSFP resources allocated earlier in the function are unwound when a
later step fails.

[High]
Can the err_fm_del path leak a flow-meter refcount when the flow meter
was already in use?
Looking at sparx5_psfp_fm_add():
ret = sparx5_psfp_fm_get(sparx5, uidx, &fm->pol.idx);
if (ret < 0)
return ret;
/* Was already in use, no need to reconfigure */
if (ret > 1)
return 0;
...
*id = fm->pol.idx;
return 0;
When the flow meter is already in use, sparx5_psfp_fm_add() returns 0
without writing back to *id, so the caller's psfp_fmid is left at its
initialized value of 0.
If sparx5_psfp_sf_add() or one of the vcap_rule_add_action_* calls then
fails, err_fm_del runs sparx5_psfp_fm_del(sparx5, 0). Pool ids appear to
be 1-based:
u32 sparx5_pool_idx_to_id(u32 idx)
{
return ++idx;
}
so id 0 has no valid LBSET, sparx5_sdlb_group_get_by_index() returns
-EINVAL, and sparx5_psfp_fm_del() aborts before reaching its
sparx5_psfp_fm_put() call:
ret = sparx5_sdlb_group_get_by_index(sparx5, id, &fm.pol.group);
if (ret < 0)
return ret;
ret = sparx5_psfp_fm_put(sparx5, id);
The refcount that sparx5_psfp_fm_get() incremented on the actually-reused
flow meter would not be decremented.
Would it work to either move the *id = fm->pol.idx; assignment before the
ret > 1 early return inside sparx5_psfp_fm_add(), or to call
sparx5_psfp_fm_del(sparx5, fm->pol.idx) at this cleanup site instead?
