[PATCH AUTOSEL 6.18-6.12] net: mana: Drop TX skb on post_work_request failure and unmap resources

[Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>]

From: Aditya Garg <gargaditya@linux.microsoft.com>

[ Upstream commit 45120304e84171fd215c1b57b15b285446d15106 ]

Drop TX packets when posting the work request fails and ensure DMA
mappings are always cleaned up.

LLM Generated explanations, may be completely bogus:

Looking at this commit, I need to analyze it for stable backporting
suitability.

## Commit Analysis

### What the commit does:

1. **In `mana_en.c`**: When `mana_gd_post_work_request()` fails during
   TX:
   - Previously: returned `NETDEV_TX_BUSY` without cleaning up DMA
     mappings
   - Now: calls `mana_unmap_skb()` to clean up DMA mappings, then drops
     the packet properly

2. **In `gdma_main.c`**: Removes a noisy `dev_err` message for flow
   control failure

3. **In `mana.h`**: Exports `mana_unmap_skb()` function for use across
   files

### Bug Being Fixed

Looking at the original error path:
```c
if (err) {
    (void)skb_dequeue_tail(&txq->pending_skbs);
    netdev_warn(ndev, "Failed to post TX OOB: %d\n", err);
    err = NETDEV_TX_BUSY;
    goto tx_busy;  // DMA mappings NOT unmapped!
}
```

The original code has **two bugs**:
1. **DMA resource leak**: When `mana_gd_post_work_request()` fails, the
   DMA mappings set up earlier (via `mana_map_skb()`) are never freed
2. **Improper error handling**: Returns `NETDEV_TX_BUSY` which tells the
   network stack to retry, but the skb was already dequeued from
   `pending_skbs`, leading to inconsistent state

### Code Change Assessment

The fix is straightforward and surgical:
```c
if (err) {
    (void)skb_dequeue_tail(&txq->pending_skbs);
    mana_unmap_skb(skb, apc);  // NEW: Clean up DMA mappings
    netdev_warn(ndev, "Failed to post TX OOB: %d\n", err);
    goto free_sgl_ptr;  // Drop packet properly
}
```

### Stable Criteria Evaluation

| Criterion | Assessment |
|-----------|------------|
| Fixes real bug | ✅ Yes - DMA resource leak and improper error handling
|
| Obviously correct | ✅ Yes - unmapping DMA on error is clearly correct
|
| Small and contained | ✅ Yes - only affects error path in MANA driver |
| No new features | ✅ Yes - pure bug fix |
| User impact | ✅ Medium-high - affects Azure VM users; leaks can cause
long-term instability |

### Risk Assessment

- **Low risk**: Changes only affect the TX error path
- **Self-contained**: The `mana_unmap_skb()` function already exists,
  just made non-static
- **No dependencies**: This commit is standalone
- **Well-tested**: Has "Reviewed-by" tag from Microsoft maintainer

### Missing Signals

- No `Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org` tag
- No `Fixes:` tag

However, this is clearly fixing a resource leak bug that has existed
since the error path was written. Resource leaks in network drivers are
exactly the kind of bugs stable trees should fix.

### User Impact

The MANA driver is used in Microsoft Azure VMs. DMA mapping leaks:
- Cause memory pressure over time
- Can lead to allocation failures under sustained TX errors
- May cause VM instability in production cloud environments

This is a production-relevant bug affecting real cloud users.

### Conclusion

This commit fixes a genuine resource leak bug in the MANA network
driver. The fix is:
- Small (adds one function call + declaration)
- Surgical (only affects error path)
- Obviously correct (unmapping DMA on error is mandatory)
- Low risk (doesn't touch normal TX path)
- Important for production Azure VM users

The lack of stable/Fixes tags is unfortunate but doesn't diminish the
clear bug-fix nature of this change.

**YES**
